Bruce Springsteen enters New Jersey Hall of Fame
Springsteen got inducted yesterday into the brand new New Jersey Hall of Fame. He’s part of the first class of inductees in the NJ Hall of Fame, along with other famous NJ citizens such as astronaut Buzz Aldrin, scientists Thomas Edison or Albert Einstein, actress Meryl Streep or the two most famous singers from the state: Frank Sinatra and Bruce Springsteen.
La Bamba and the Hubcaps were the house band for the evening, and Springsteen closed the ceremony joining them onstage to play guitar on Sam & Dave’s «I Thank You» and sing on «Glory Days».
Upcoming show: it’s been confirmed that Bruce’s benefit concert on May 7th at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank won’t be an acoustic affair but a full band show with The E Street Band, this being their first theatre show since The River tour.
