Video The Gaslight Anthem Meet Bruuuuuuce

Posted by Ezra Ace Caraeff on Tue, Jun 30, 2009 at 12:19 PM

I'm so easy to please that sometimes I think I'm like an infant. Dangle some car keys in front of my face, and it's all smiles. Or, in this case, post a video of the Gaslight Anthem being joined by their/mine/everyone's idol, Bruce Springsteen, while onstage at Glastonbury.

Give it up for The Boss to take time away from resting on his large pile of cash to perform with a somewhat small—they are playing Berbati's on September 22nd—indie band from his home state. I also like how when it comes to Springsteen cameos, you don't need to get the man his own mic. He'll share yours.

Of course he will.

Ezra thanks for posting this. I hope the Merc can cover more such music locally (plain old guitar rock and roll) cause there's probably more of it than is generally reflected in the local press.

This may go against the blood pact I made to never speak ill of the Boss, but....

dude didn't really know the lyrics, huh?
