Bruce Springsteen concerts in NYC have been stripped-down shows with the New Jersey legend performing solo and telling stories in a Broadway theater.But on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden, the Boss was back in all his arena-rocking glory — with the E Street Band by his side once again.In the first of his area concerts on a 2023 trek that kicked off in February, Springsteen and his beloved backing band played together in NYC for the first time since “The River” tour in August 2016.And you could feel the excitement and anticipation in the air even before Springsteen and crew took the stage just 10 minutes after the scheduled 7:30 start time — the better to play those marathon, three-hour-plus concerts they’re famous for.Chants of “Bruuuuuce!” rippled through the arena until the band hit the stage, one by one, but they reached peak roar when Springsteen himself finally made his entrance.“New York City!” he shouted as if he was just as happy to be back home with his musical family.And as he launched into the “Born in the USA” anthem “No “Surrender,” it was clear that the ever-buff Boss was not backing down to Father Time — even at 73.Even when he went into “Ghosts” — from 2020’s “Letter to You,” which found him confronting his own mortality — Springsteen sounded as vital as ever.And you could feel some love from the other side when Clarence Clemons’ nephew Jake channeled the spirit of his late uncle on saxophone.Although Springsteen’s latest album, 2022’s “Only the Strong Survive,” is a solo affair — which he nodded to with the soulful swagger of his Commodores cover “Nightshift” — this tour is definitely all about those special E Street moments like him sharing the mic again with ace sidekick Steven Van Zandt again

Chris Martin has an unusual eating habit.

Bruce Springsteen and other figures from the arts and entertainment industry at the White House this week.The US President was speaking at the National Medal of the Arts ceremony on Tuesday (March 21), where author Colson Whitehead, singer Gladys Knight, actor Mindy Kaling and designer Vera Wang were among honourees.When presenting to Whitehead, who has won back-to-back Pulitzer Prizes, the president said: “How in the hell did you do that? Pretty good man,” before saying that he was “kind of looking for a back-to-back myself”.Biden has not officially announced his bid for re-election for 2024, but is expected to do so in the coming weeks.The medals at this week’s ceremony were awarded to people who deepened the country’s “understanding of the humanities and broadened our citizen’s engagement with history, literature, philosophy and so many other subjects.”“Above all, you’re masters of your craft,” Biden said (via ABC News).Springsteen received a medal for “his extraordinary contributions to the American songbook”. Biden quipped that “some people are born to run” when honouring the US rock icon, a reference to The Boss’ 1975 song ‘Born To Run’ from his third studio album of the same name.“Bruce Springsteen, a poet troubadour, chronicler of American life and resilience and hope and dreams, recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, along with 20 Grammys, an Oscar, a Tony, and an unyielding love from millions of fans across generations,” Biden said.Last month, Springsteen and the E Street Band kicked off first tour in six years.

Chris Martin is taking Bruce Springsteen’s advice when it comes to his diet.

“Vice President Harris, Second Gentleman, former president Selina Meyer, welcome to the White House,” declared Joe Biden today, opening a ceremony in the Executive Mansion for the 2021 National Medals of Arts and the 2021 National Humanities Medals recipients. “A sacred place for many reasons, it’s the residence of the First Family, but it is really the people’s house,” the real-life POTUS added.

Bruce Springsteen, who built his music career on his working-class image, are dismayed by the sky-high ticket prices for his upcoming tour with the E Street Band – the first in six years.The tour kicks off Thursday in Buffalo, and seats are going for as much as $5,000 apiece. The four-digit ticket prices are a result of Ticketmaster’s system of “dynamic pricing,”  in which an algorithm fluctuates prices in real time based on supply and demand.

Bruce Springsteen, Jose Feliciano and Gladys Knight will be among the recipients of the US National Medal Of Arts later today, in recognition of their work to make the arts in the States just so bloody great. President Joe Biden will do the official badge pinning and probably say well done and all that.“The National Medal Of Arts recipients have helped to define and enrich our nation’s cultural legacy through their life long passionate commitment”, says National Endowment For The Arts Chair Maria Rosario Jackson.

The White House said President Joe Biden will present the 2021 National Medals of Arts in conjunction with the 2021 National Humanities Medals on Tuesday during a ceremony in the East Room.
