32 years later

Bruce SpringsteenJill and I are headed to the Bruce Springsteen concert in Seattle this evening. It’s been 32 years since we first saw Bruce in in the Dane County Coliseum in Madison.

About 3,000 people that evening with 7,000 empty seats. Couldn’t convince my summer roommates in Madison that they ought to see Bruce who the guys from New Jersey at Notre Dame had turned me onto. They had never heard of him and didn’t want to waste 10 bucks on a ticket.

Though ticket prices have risen to a $120, I found while at the Police Concert last fall that seeing my wife still rockin at 52 does this guy’s heart well.

By the way, that’s a cover from a ’76 Time Magazine.
