In a past life I was an average-at-best musician but I still have a lot friends who can stay up past 12 on a school night and fit into size 30-32 jeans

My dad loves to tell the story of having to literally make me go see Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band play Reunion Arena in Dallas on the Born in the USA tour. It was 1984, I was 13 and totally getting into X, Hüsker Dü, R.E.M. and The Replacements so I absolutely didn’t have any interest in seeing “the boss”. But he convinced me to go and it turned out to be one of the best concert experiences of my life. I learned how a performer could use storytelling to keep a huge audience engaged and wanting more. It’s a show I’ll never forget and made me a Bruce fan for life. And of course the band was insanely good.

@SKT I saw Springsteen for the first time in Birmingham last year and it is one of the greatest gigs I’ve ever seen. He was brilliant and the band were outstanding.
I was buzzing for days afterwards.
