Happy 60th birthday, Bruce!


Let's start the celebration with some live videos: Satisfaction, Jungleland, The River, Prove It All Night, This Land is Your Land, and an incredible rare performance of him busking. Then it's off to Wolfgang's Concert Vault for some amazing streaming audio, including Berkeley 1973, San Francisco 1978, Stockholm 1988 (the last show with the E Street Band for a decade), and a King Biscuit interview from 1978. While all that is streaming, consider these 60 memories of Bruce and tick off how many of them you experienced (or just wish you had).

3. Bruce and I lived about 3 blocks apart in Freehold (NJ). One Sunday
afternoon I'm coming out of the sub shop on South Street and he, his buddy and I start talking. As I'm leaving I said to him, "you really need to cut that hair." Saw him many years later when I lived at the shore, he stopped the truck and came up on the lawn and while my sons were there he told them the story. We all laughed and I will never hear the end of it. He is a sweetie...
