Greetings from Hyde Park UK....The Boss Rocks London

Headlining the Hyde Park Calling Festival, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band treat their long time UK Fans to a very special show. Opening with A cover of The Clash's (and fitting as well) London Calling, the show includes a rare but stunning Racing In The Street, perfect for a Mid Summmer London Evening.

Of course, you might wonder whether Springsteen will still be belting out sets like this in 10 or even 5 years time. But until such time as he decides to hang up his work shirt, cowboy boots and Telecaster, we should continue to enjoy shows of this calibre.

The London show was never going to be a disappointment, though. From the outset, as the Boss screamed "London Calling" before kicking off with an unexpected cover of the Clash song, he awed the 50,000-strong crowd.

Springsteen takes Glastonbury to the Promised Land








A historic first ever Glastonbury headline performance in front of 175000 people, is witnessed further by streamed BBC Television coverage. This is the biggest crowd that Bruce Springsteen has ever performed to, around 15,000 more people are present than at Springsteen's Berlin 1988 show. In an astonishing opening, Springsteen remembers Joe Strummer with a cover version of 'Coma Girl' before dedicating a blistering Badlands to the late British Rock Legend. An unfortunate fine for breaking the curfew is levied, as Bruce plays just short of 2 and 3/4 hours of pulsating, life affirming music.

Its a night of high drama, and emotion, young and old alike, present in the company of arguably Rock's greatest live act. The weather holds on a balmy English Summer day, as Glastonbury for ever regarded as the Worlds Greatest Music festival, bows down to the Man they call 'The Boss'. This was a priveledge.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band put on a show so good it's quasi-religious – for nigh on three hours, Pilton becomes the Promised Land

But after that poignant opening, it was all “1, 2, 3, 4” and the “pants-dropping, love-making, Viagra-taking” E Street Band rocking Life and Death and things more important than that. Everyone got sore throats howling the big choruses as they rolled and tumbled down Badlands, Prove It All Night, Because The Night, No Surrender (duetted with Brian Fallon from New Jersey newcomers Gaslight Anthem), Promised Land, Born To Run and more, powerhouse piledrivers no one can match.
