Springsteen on XM Radio

I have been listening to this channel for quite sometime on the XM/Sirius radio and for a Springsteen fan it can offer the occasional tidbit that you have not heard, or not heard in so long it is like a new experience. Late last night as the insomnia kicked in we heard The Promise and then a version of Johnny Bye Bye from a long ago concert. Bruce gave an into where he talked about Elvis and how he had seen him six months before he died in Philly and in Bruce's words the death of the King was not a surprise to him. It was quite a statement and an incredibly personal version of Johnny Bye-Bye followed.

We saw Bruce at Great Woods last August. It was an incredible night, an incredible show. With Bruce at least for me it never gets old. We took our oldest son who is 14 to the show. It was a night to remember. Not the first time I have said this and it will not be the last. Thanks Bruce.
