1999 bruce springsteen tour

The Reunion Tour

• Edit source
• View history

The tour was the first set of regular concerts given by Springsteen and the E Street Band in eleven years, since the 1988 Tunnel of Love Express and Human Rights Now! Tours, and followed two lengthy tours by Springsteen without the Band in the intervening years.

The tour was not intended to promote any Springsteen records; the release of the box set  Tracks  six months earlier had been oriented towards the holiday shopping market, and no longer held any chart action by the time of the tour. The release of the cut-down, single disc  18 Tracks  did coincide with the start of the tour but received little publicity or sales.

Itinerary [ ]

Tour preparations began in March 1999 with a series of rehearsals at Asbury Park, New Jersey's Convention Hall. Several dozen of the Springsteen faithful, eager with anticipation at what the long-awaited reunion might bring, stood outside the Hall on the cold and windy boardwalk and beach, hearing what they could from inside the walls and reporting their findings on several Springsteen Internet forums. It was during one of these sessions that fans first heard runthroughs of "The Train Song", which would become the tour's closing epic "Land of Hope and Dreams". This practice of listening in on rehearsals would continue for all of Springsteen's subsequent tours. Springsteen then held two public rehearsal concerts in Convention Hall, a practice that would also continue for tours to come.

Springsteen opted to start the Reunion Tour in Europe, perhaps to get the show in top shape before coming home to greater attention. The first leg of the tour formally began on April 9, 1999 with the first of two nights in Barcelona's Palau Sant Jordi. Barcelona was in the process of becoming one of the strongest centers of Springsteen popularity, and additionally there were hundreds of travelling fans in attendance. The Europe leg would run through the end of June, finishing in Oslo, and encompass 37 shows in all, featuring a mixture of arenas and stadiums and often playing two nights in a location.

Two weeks later the second leg commenced back in the United States, and took place solely in arenas. It began with 15 consecutive shows in New Jersey's Continental Airlines Arena. More multi-night stands followed, as the tour concentrated on Springsteen hot spots such as Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, and Los Angeles. After 52 shows, the leg finished in Minneapolis in the end of November.

A three-month winter break ensued. The third leg started up in late February 2000 with a show at Penn State University. This leg focused on mostly single-night stands in areas that hadn't been reached on the previous leg, including a couple of dates in Canada, and again took place in arenas. Totalling 44 shows, it concluded in June with 10 consecutive dates in New York City's Madison Square Garden, ending on July 1, 2000.

In all, the tour played 133 shows in 62 cities over a span of 15 months.

Broadcast and recordings [ ]

The final two shows at Madison Square Garden became the source for  Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band: Live In New York City , which aired as an HBO television special on April 7, 2001, and subsequently was released in longer form as a DVD and then a CD. However none of these forms presented a complete show, nor songs in their original concert order.

• Madison Square Garden, New York 07/01/2000 , released October 6, 2017
• Chicago September 30, 1999 , released September 7, 2018

It was a no-brainer.

When the news broke in December 1998 that Bruce Springsteen , after a decade of flying solo, was not only reunited with his vaunted E Street Band but would celebrate the reassembly with his first full-band world tour in 11 years, of course he was going to kick off the U.S. leg in his native New Jersey.

But what would follow in the summer of 1999 was outlandish even for The Boss’s prolific live performance career.

Amanda Brown

Between July 15 and Aug. 12, Springsteen and The E Street Band played 15 consecutive sold-out concerts at Continental Airlines Arena in East Rutherford, delivering the most epic run of shows Bruce had ever attempted in the Garden State — and possibly the most incredible single run of concert performances ever held in New Jersey to date.

Though the tour did a full run through Europe in the spring of '99 before heading for the U.S., rehearsals were famously held in March at Convention Hall in Asbury Park , Springsteen's old proving ground. The rehearsals began as private events, with a few-dozen diehards standing outside, listening through the doors for the first sounds of the E Street Band in a decade.

After a few days of rehearsals, which reintroduced Steven Van Zandt back to the E Street fold after he missed the "Born in the U.S.A." and "Tunnel of Love Express" tours, Springsteen allowed 25 or so lucky fans inside the hall to watch the warm-up. Two "public rehearsal" shows would soon follow at Convention Hall in later March, with proceeds benefiting local charities.

Then came the months of anticipation as the reunion tour rumbled through Europe, finally culminating on night of the first Jersey gig: July 15, 1999. A faux-boardwalk area was created in the Meadowlands arena parking lot — complete with games of chance, beach volleyball and Springsteen karaoke — in an attempt to recreate the shore experience Bruce had while cutting his teeth in shore towns Asbury Park, Belmar and Long Branch.

And surprising to no one, the welcome-back performance was about as strong as The Boss had ever sounded.

In his review of the opening show, former Star-Ledger music critic Jay Lustig wrote: “Springsteen and the band have, quite simply, rarely sounded better than this … expectations were high, but the performance level was much higher.”

William Perlman

The performance, which clocked in around three hours — resetting the stage for all the marathon Jersey shows Springsteen would host over the next 20 years — introduced crowd, who had come from states and even countries away to see the show, to the first-ever U.S. performance of “Where The Bands Are,” a deep-cut outtake from “The River” recording sessions in 1979, which had appeared on the “Tracks” box set released in 1998.

The show was also the first to welcome the soon-to-be fan favorite, “Land Of Hopes And Dreams,” which was written prior to the reunion tour and used as a rousing set closer. Additional tunes that appeared on the “Tracks” set were also debuted during the 15-show run: “I Wanna Be With You,” “Loose Ends” and “Take ‘Em As They Come.”

Night after night, fans piled into the arena later named the Izod Center (and then closed in 2015), some 20,000 for each event. The Star-Ledger reported in August ‘99 that the 15-show run raked in around $26 million including ticket, food and merchandise sales (Springsteen took about half of that home, the Ledger wrote).

The run ended with one last monster performance on Aug. 12, with a star-studded rendition of “Hungry Heart” that welcome Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora and Melissa Etheridge to the stage.

Onward the tour went, to many more cities including six sold-out concerts at First Union Center (now Wells Fargo Center) in Philadelphia and concluding the following summer with 10 sold-out concerts at Madison Square Garden in New York.

But as the 20th anniversary of the tour’s final New Jersey show approaches Monday, let’s check out a bunch of photos and videos from the incredible run, plus a few memories from the fans who attended (gathered from a call-out on social media).

Photos were taken by Star-Ledger photographers at the July 15 and Aug. 12 (first and last of the run) shows. 

"My friend and I were seniors in high school growing up in Freehold. We went to the last show. We were working at the Stewart's Root Beer (one of Bruce's old stomping grounds) on Route 33 in Freehold where we used to listen to The Boss played on NJ 101.5, so we saved up some money and purchased tickets for $108 each to go see the man we had heard so much about growing up in Freehold. We were HOOKED! we've since flown around the country and have seen him 30+ times since. When He played 'Born to Run' that night in 1999, a fire was sparked in both of us, and we've been running ever since (with much help from the Boss' inspirational lyrics)!" — Sean Bogdany, Delray Beach, Florida 

"I was there for the second night, July 18. I vividly remember the sense of real occasion in the air, that after so many years and so much anticipation, they were all back on stage together again. It felt a little unusual to see them all playing together (my previous E Street Band concert was April 1, 1988 in Nassau Coliseum; my first was 1978 in Syracuse), but "Jungleland" (the penultimate song in the main set) was a thing of beauty that just made all the years of the E Street Band being scattered fall away. But there was a bit of uncertainty in the air, too: Is this a one-time tour, or is this gonna stick? And when they did "If I Should Fall Behind," that uncertainty fell away, too." — Craig Peters, Hatboro, Pennsylvania 

"I went to seven of these shows! It was the best experience having the "boardwalk" set up and listening to many great karaoke singers … singing BRUCE of course! I recall I saw him from all sides of the arena including 10th row, 3rd row and elbows on the stage for the encores! I was sick as a dog for this last show I was not missing BRUCE no matter how many other shows I had been to!" — Margie Rhodes 

"I was at one of the shows in 3rd row. My wife was already late giving birth to my daughter. Clarence came out on stage and showed Bruce. They pointed to her and shook their heads. Security was ready to escort us out if she went into labor." — Tony Tannucilli Jr., Old Bridge, N.J.

“In 1999, I was a redhead on a mission to see as many shows as I could afford and still pay the rent. On show No. 13, I had a nosebleed seat but I just wanted him to know I was there. I painted “Rosie Come out Tonight” on a bed sheet and carried it into the arena. Some guy started mocking me about my sign, said didn’t I know he doesn’t play Rosalita on tour and never will. I bantered back and forth and finally he said, how about you give up your sign. I said no way. He said I’ll trade you two front row tickets....that’s when I realized he was (working for Springsteen).

I was off to front row, direct in front of Clarence. This was when you could rush stage during 'Hungry Heart,' and I remember the heat of the lights, the amazement of Bruce singing down to us, and the finger points, smiles and laughs from Clarence. I sang and sang and my face hurt from smiling. I remember being so tired from so many late shows, but these were THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE. That tour was a milestone for me." — Erika Balestro Desimone, Bernardsville, N.J. 

"Closing night, August 12, 1999 was the single most spectacular concert I've been to, ever. Still, to this day searching at shows for the energy I felt that night. I swore after that show that if I never saw another concert in my life I'd die happy. Bruce took the stage and said, 'It's the last dance' and opened with 'Jersey Girl.'  There was all kinds of begging going on for 'Rosalita' this tour. … At what seemed to be the end of the encore, house lights came up, people start leaving, Bruce started thanking the crowd for coming out to the 15 shows then, "Let me see, how could I say thanks? I know there's a way. I'm sure there's a way. I haven't seen any of those stupid signs So maybe just once…' BLAM 'Rosie!'" — M.C. O'Connor, Shark River Hills, N.J. 

" I was at five of the shows and remember one the most  — August 6. I was about eight rows behind the stage, on Roy Bittan's side. Springsteen opened with 'Adam Raised a Cain.' I had just gotten back from my honeymoon and seeing Bruce with The E Street Band was the capper on the greatest summer of my life." —  Julian Garcia, Towaco, N.J.

Bruce Springsteen comes to the rescue for 11-year-old at his concert

Bruce Springsteen is back on the road touring after a peptic ulcer late last year had him worried that he might never sing again.

It’s music to his fans’ ears. Also, “The Boss” is still pretty, danged awesome.

Don’t believe it?

Well, a clip from a recent concert is creating a social media stir because the 74-year-old came to the rescue of an 11-year-old in attendance. No, there wasn’t a life-or-death situation here, but it turns out the kid skipped school to make it to the show.

And when you skip school, you need an excuse.

That’s what the 11-year-old explained with a big sign, asking Springsteen to sign her excuse.

It resulted in the memory of a lifetime because Springsteen saw the sign and went to work. A clip from the concert shows him taking the note from the girl, kneeling down, and writing a long message on her excuse. He also held up the sign, and blew a kiss to her all while smiling.

“No words!!!!!” Karen Pitcher Scovell wrote while sharing a recording of the interaction to Facebook. “To be in such close proximity to greatness was more than I had ever expected. Bruce knelt down directly in front of me to sing a school excuse for the little girl behind me…”

You can see her post here.

Apparently, it’s not the first time “The Boss” has come through for kids skipping school to see his show. You can read more about that here.

The 74-year-old Springsteen, who had to postpone his tour last September due to the ulcer, admitted in a recent interview that he wasn’t sure he would ever be able to sing again.

“Once I started singing, you know, you can rehearse singing, but your voice isn’t the same in rehearsal,” he said according to Deadline. “You don’t have the edge of adrenaline that really pushes it into a better place and the thing when I had the stomach problem, one of the big problems was I couldn’t sing.

“You sing with your diaphragm,” he continued. “My diaphragm was hurting so badly that when I went to make the effort to sing, it was killing me, you know? So, I literally couldn’t sing at all, you know, and that lasted for two or three months, along with just a myriad of other painful problems.”

Springsteen said people kept telling him he would return, but he said the ulcer was so painful that, at times, he did not believe that.

“You know, you’re thinking like, ‘Hey, am I gonna sing again?’” he said. “And you know, this is one of the things I love to do the best, the most, and right now I can’t do it.”

He said doctors kept telling him that would change.

“At the end of the day, I found some great doctors, and they straightened me out,” he said. “And I can’t do anything but thank them all.”

“The Boss” is slated to play in Pittsburgh on Aug. 15 and Aug. 18, and in Philadelphia on Aug 21 and Aug. 23. He also has a date in Washington, D.C. on Sept. 7 and in Baltimore on Sept. 13.

Bruce Springsteen gets a flat tire in Jersey, gets to Mohegan Sun concert on time

Flat notes are rare at Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band concerts.

Nor do flat tires stop the show. 

Springsteen posted a pic of himself on his Instagram story sitting next to an SUV with a flat tire in the Keyport area of the Jersey Shore on his way to the E Street Band's Friday, April 12 show at Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut.

Springsteen had apparently just started out for Mohegan Sun from his home in Colts Neck. Repairs were made and the Boss, wearing a tie and vest, took the stage on time at 7:45 p.m.

No mention of the unscheduled pit stop was made from the stage. Springsteen and the E Street Band performed a spirited 27 songs over 2 hours and 45 minutes. Tour debuts included “Seeds” and “I'm on Fire.” The gospel-stirred “My City of Ruins” was included, and it's become a statement of mission for the current run of shows, which began March 19 at the Footprint Center in Phoenix. Multiple shows were postponed last S eptember as Springsteen had a bout of peptic ulcer disease.

“We're here tonight to bring the joyous power of rock 'n' roll into your life,” said Springsteen during the “My City of Ruins” intro. “We're here to bring some (blanking) fun. We are here to wake you up and to shake you up and take you up to higher ground!”

The show, the band's first on the East Coast in eight months, was looser and seemingly more improvised than those of last year's tour. The night's first two songs, “Roll of the Dice” and “Lucky Towns,” were appropriate for the show's setting — inside a casino.

Springsteen popped a bottle of champagne as he walked on stage, and a pink bra was thrown at him late in the show during “Rosalita (Come Out Tonight).” Steven Van Zandt picked up the bra and put it on the neck of Springsteen's guitar.

The Boss threw it back into the sold-out audience of 10,000 during the build-up of “Rosalita's” final chorus.

“Thank you, you guys are great — you made the whole evening fun! I love Uncasville, wherever the heck it is! As a matter of fact, I'm moving to Uncasville tomorrow,” Springsteen, 74, said at the close of the show.

Friday's show was rescheduled from Sept. 16, 2023. Up next is Monday, April 15 at the MVP Arena in Albany, New York.

Bruce Springsteen concert in Syracuse: Tickets, parking, traffic (what you need to know)

• Updated: Apr. 17, 2024, 7:05 p.m. |
• Published: Apr. 17, 2024, 11:51 a.m.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will perform at the JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse, N.Y., on Thursday, April 18. It will be The Boss’ first concert in Central New York since 2012 and his first in Syracuse with his famous backing band since a 1985 performance at the Dome (then the Carrier Dome).

“First time I came to Syracuse was 1973 and you were looking at the only two members of the E Street Band that were there 51 frickin’ years ago,” Springsteen said in an Instagram video alongside original E Street Band bassist Garry W. Tallent on Monday. “50 years later and guess what? Me, this gentleman Garry W. Tallent, and the rest of the E Street Band have plans to destroy your city and rock you into the ground!”

Thursday’s concert, originally scheduled for September, was postponed after Springsteen was diagnosed with peptic ulcer disease . Tickets purchased for the original date will be honored for the new date.

Pete Sala, Syracuse University’s vice president and chief facilities officer, encouraged fans to follow three simple words: “Get here early.”

Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and the show will begin promptly at 7:30 p.m. Springsteen has no opening act.

Here’s everything you need to know before you go, including ticket information, where to park, and traffic tips:

Tickets purchased for the original Sept. 7, 2023, date will be honored for the rescheduled date of April 18, 2024.

A few thousand tickets are still available through Ticketmaster (prices start at $74.40), as well as VividSeats , StubHub , TicketNetwork or SeatGeek . Attendees are encouraged to download their ticket on their phone before arriving.

Sala said very few people had requested refunds when the show was postponed, so many ticketholders have been waiting about a year since the concert was first announced.

Guests with a General Admission Pit ticket should enter through Gate D. Fans looking to line up for front of the pit entry can also line up outside Gate D beginning at 8:00 a.m.

Bottles and cans are not permitted on the floor. All beverages (including water) must be emptied into a cup prior to accessing the floor seats and the GA pit.

SHOW START TIME / END TIME

The concert will begin at 7:30 p.m. Springsteen is expected to take the stage promptly as there is no opening act.

There is no end time for the concert, but at Monday’s MVP Arena concert in Albany, Springsteen reportedly played for 2 hours and 45 minutes. If the Syracuse show starts at 7:30, expect the Boss to be rocking until about 10:15 or 10:30 p.m.

PARKING / TRAFFIC

Concertgoers are encouraged to arrive early due to traffic. Syracuse city police will be shutting down Comstock Avenue to one-way traffic to help drivers get in and out as quickly as possible.

If you purchased advance sale parking, please display your parking pass on your rearview mirror so it is easily viewable for the parking attendants and to help with traffic flow. If you purchased a parking pass for the original concert date, that pass is still valid. West Lots by the stadium and Irving Garage will open at 3:30 p.m.

If you don’t have parking passes booked in advance, Sala strongly recommends parking at Skytop (1600 Jamesville Avenue) on SU’s South Campus, and then take the shuttle to the Dome. The Skytop Lot will open at 1 p.m.

Syracuse University also recommends using the Waze app for help with directions and navigating traffic to get to your parking lot. ( See a list of parking lot addresses .)

• On event day, $35 parking will be available at the University Avenue Garage, UAG, (1101 E Adams St) and Comstock Avenue Garage, CAG, (501 Comstock Ave). Additional parking may be available at UNVN, UNVS, Harrison and Waverly. All lots will accept major credit cards, debit cards and mobile payment (Apple Pay, Android Pay and Google Pay). Cash will not be accepted.
• $30 paid parking will be available at the Skytop (1600 Jamesville Avenue ) parking lots. Free shuttle transportation is provided between the College Place shuttle drop off and the Colvin, Comstock and Skytop parking lots. These lots will open at 1 p.m. with shuttle service beginning at 4 p.m.
• Skytop: If you are using I-81 South to get to the SKY or SKYD lots, SU suggests you use Exit 17. At the bottom of the ramp turn LEFT and at the next light head up Brighton Ave., then left onto Ainsley Drive to your lot. If you’re taking I-81 North from south of Syracuse, get off at Exit 16A for I-481 North and then take the first exit for Rock Cut Road.

All lots will accept major credit cards, debit cards and mobile payment (Apple Pay, Android Pay and Google Pay). Cash will not be accepted.

CASH OR CREDIT?

WIRELESS / WIFI

Sala said Verizon users will see fast 5G service after JMA Wireless installed a new distributed antenna system for cellular service. The same work is in progress for AT&T and T-Mobile, according to Sala, and will be in place by the time football season begins. For Springsteen, that means some cell phone users may see potentially slower speeds especially at peak moments, like when everyone tries to take a photo as soon as Springsteen comes out on stage and tries to send them to friends and family.

At a Clark concert 50 years ago, Bruce Springsteen heralded things to come

Before he was chrome-wheeled, fuel-injected and selling out stadiums, Bruce Springsteen was another aspiring, up-and-coming artist on the club and college circuit.

And it was 50 years ago this year — on Oct. 6, 1974, to be precise — when Clark University students became some of the first ones in Worcester to catch “The Fever.”

On April 12, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will be playing at Mohegan Sun Arena, Uncasville, Connecticut. This will be Springsteen’s first show in New England since he postponed the remainder of his current tour back in September as he recovered from peptic ulcer disease.

Last year, Springsteen played three shows in the Bay State — March 20 at the TD Garden in Boston, and Aug. 24 and 26 at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough. On Aug. 26, his last New England show before the scheduled April 12 show, Springsteen suffered a self-diagnosed panic attack when E Street Band guitarist Steven Van Zandt revealed he was from the Bay State and not New Jersey.

I call that a bargain

On Page 9 of the Oct. 3, 1974, edition of the Clark University’s student newspaper, The Scarlet , ran an unassuming quarter-page advertisement that had more white space than type for two different concerts.

The unassuming, easy-to-miss ad plainly read Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee and Willie Dixon were playing Oct. 4  

Further down the page and supplying the same amount of little or no urgency, the ad read Bruce Springsteen was playing just two days later on Oct. 6.

Even in smaller type, the ad sheepishly read, almost as an apology, “Tickets: $2, Oct. 4; $3, Oct. 6; $4, for both. Talk about a bargain for three blues legends, but I don’t know about the other guy.

For you see in 1974, most Clark students who heard the name Springsteen would say, “Who?” while anyone off-campus who got wind of the Bruce show at Clark probably would have shrugged, “Who cares?” or “I’ll save my money.”

Springsteen’s Clark show was a year before “The Boss” was on the cover of Time and Newsweek in the same week on Oct. 27, 1975, and roughly 10 months before his breakthrough third album “Born to Run,” which was released on Aug. 25, 1975.

On Sept. 19, 1974, pianist Roy Bittan and drummer Max Weinberg played their first show in the E Street Band. By the time the two played at Clark, Bittan and Weinberg had only been rocking out with Springsteen for two-and-a-half weeks. Not at Clark was Steven Van Zandt, who wouldn't become a full-fledged E Street Band member until July 1975.

The night things changed

Springsteen is a legend now, but 50 years ago he was just another struggling rocker who was playing at area clubs, college halls and small concert arenas, and who was building a slow but steady reputation in the Tri-State area and beyond for his unorthodox tight band and legendary marathon concerts.

In 1974, Springsteen was nobody as far as people of Worcester were concerned. Unless you were from or had a cousin from the Garden State, chances are you never heard of the guy or any of his music. You certainly weren’t hearing Springsteen on Worcester radio. If you did, it was Manfred Mann’s Earth Band’s cover of Springsteen’s “Blinded by the Light.” And he wasn’t being played on turntables in college dorms.

But that was about to change on the night of Oct. 6, 1974, at Clark’s Atwood Hall in Worcester, the same New England city where Springsteen would go on to sell out multiple nights on his “Born in the U.S.A.” tour and play his tour opener for his “Tunnel of Love” tour, all in the ‘80s at the Worcester Centrum , now the DCU Center.

To date, Springsteen has play eight sold-out shows at Worcester’s downtown arena.

'Controlled energy'

So what did Springsteen and his E Street Band (noncredited in The Scarlet ad) deliver that night 50 years ago at Clark?

“Controlled energy,” according to college scribe Ruth Rachel Polsky, who reviewed the show and left behind one of the few documents of Springsteen’s first-ever concert in Worcester.

“Onstage, silhouetted dramatically by green light, the slight man (Springsteen) became a magician, deftly manipulating his band, his body and us, his audience,” Polsky wrote in The Scarlet published four days the show.

Despite only being a junior at the time, Polsky was astute, especially with her Springsteen-magician analogy.

Nightly during the 267-date, sold-out run of “Springsteen on Broadway” at the Walter Kerr and St. James theatres in New York City, the Boss says it all starts with a big “magic trick,” a sleight of hand that has given Springsteen "a furious fire" that’s need to come face to face with 80,000 screaming rock ‘n’ roll fans.

“I am here to provide proof of life to that ever elusive, never completely believable 'us,'" Springsteen said. “That is my magic trick. And like all good magic tricks, it begins with a setup.”

A life-changing event

When Clark seniors Dennis M. Dimitri and Sue Kurz (later Sue Kurz Eleftherakis) went to the Springsteen concert at Atwood Hall together as friends, they were unaware of the life-altering event that was about to unfold inside.

“I was not a Springsteen fan going into the show,” Dimitri said. “The reason I made a point of going is my cousin was attending Seton Hall in New Jersey at the time. And he always used to say to me that there’s this guy who plays there in the student union named Bruce Springsteen. He’s great.  If you ever get a chance to see him you should go. And that’s what prompted me to get the tickets and go. I’d never listened to one of his albums prior to that.”

Dimitri, a Worcester-native — now a retired professor and former vice chair of Family Medicine & Community Health UMass Chan Medical School — and Kurz, originally from White Plains, New York, were sitting in the front row of the balcony in Atwood Hall.

“I just had two tickets and Sue was a friend of mine,” Dimitri said.  “And I asked her to come with me, and I told her the story about having heard about him and we should probably go.“

“I was a big music fan but not a Springsteen fan,” Kurz said. “I never heard of Springsteen before. But I was a rock ‘n’ roll music lover and the show was inexpensive and on campus.”

And there were also other fellow Clarkies and Clarkie friends that they knew in the audience.

“Ironically, also in the crowd, was the woman who later became my wife. She was on the floor with her girlfriends, just a few rows back from the stage,” Dimitri said. “We got married several years after we got out of college.”

'He just took the crowd'

Touring behind his sophomore album, “The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle,” Springsteen opened with “Incident on 57th Street” accompanied only by pianist Roy Bittan.

“For the opening of the show, Springsteen came out with an acoustic (guitar) and played a slow ballad,” Dimitri said. “I didn’t know it at the time but, later, recognized that it was 'Incident on 57th Street,' which we all nicknamed 'Spanish Johnny' because of that opening line, ‘Spanish Johnny drove in from the underworld last night.’”

“When Springsteen got on the stage, I only focused on him,” Kurz added. “And he just took the crowd. He just controlled the audience. He was just amazing. And I think I was so surprised how good he was. And I never forgot it. He was just so wonderful.”

Then everything changed when “Scooter” and the “Big Man” and the rest of the E Street Band came out and bust Atwood Hall in half.

“When he jerked his hips to the left and to the right, a double-barreled drumroll and flashes of purple and red light occurred simultaneously, radiating to us in a wave of total sensuality,” Polsky continued in her review. “When his voice dropped to a husky, caressing whisper, we held out collective breath and rose with him to the crescendo on Clarence Clemons’ ethereal sax.”

'He knew how to work a crowd'

Springsteen played “Spirit in the Night,” an extended version of “Kitty’s Back” and a “crashing, ecstatic “Rosalita (Come Out Tonight),” the latter which the crowd was dancing in the aisles, according to The Scarlet.

“The other thing I remember about that concert that I can’t recall ever experiencing before that and not much since is the ability of this band to take you up to this incredible high, and then slow it down and then bring it up even higher again,” Dimitri said. “It was just a manipulation of emotions of the audience that I don’t know if I’ve experienced that with other bands.”

“Bruce was feeding off the energy, and he really knew how to work a crowd,” Erlander said. “He really knew how to get them going. He was a real performer, which he still is.”

Clark senior Leon Erlanger wasn’t a Springsteen fan going into the show at Atwood Hall. And he wasn’t much of Springsteen fan going out.

“I’m a mild Springsteen fan. I’m not like a big Springsteen fan,” Erlanger said. “A friend of mine had seen him in Boston and told me he was fantastic and I have to see him. But not many people knew who he was.”

What Erlanger found extraordinary was how Springsteen instantaneously made the crowd go bonkers.

“Springsteen showed up, and he started singing and I would say, within two seconds, these people who didn’t know him, pretty much the whole audience, went crazy,” Erlanger said. “I’d never seen anything like it. Honestly. I was just looking around and thinking, what the hell was going on around here? And it was like the Beatles or something.”

'They went nuts over him'

Erlanger said he noticed that the women, especially, in the audience were going particularly nuts over Springsteen.

“All these women that I thought were nonchalant about men but I guess it was just they were nonchalant about me, they were all talking about how sexy Springsteen was. And I mean they were getting like really excited. I was just really blown away about the whole thing,” Erlanger said. “They went nuts over him. I’ve never seen anything like it …And it was instant, just instant. Everybody went crazy and was going crazy through the whole concert.”

Appearance-wise, Dimitri and Kurz remember Springsteen being a skinny, scrawny little guy in a muscle shirt and blue jeans sporting a beard and wearing sunglasses who became larger than life onstage, feeding on the excitement of the crowd’s collective energy.

In other words, Springsteen, 25, was already a powerhouse.

“I’m not quite sure what this guy is all about,” Dimitri said. “He’s from New Jersey, and he looks a little bit like a greaser, to tell you that truth. And his songs had a lot of car references in them.”

“Springsteen looked so small to me, but, I think it was because he was so young but also, he was standing next to Clarence Clemons, who I really didn’t notice because I was focusing on Bruce,” Kurz said. “He was very scruffy-looking but the way he controlled our hearts and heads and just got us going. I couldn’t look away. It was just great.

Kurtz, who has seen Springsteen five times in her life, said “Rosalita” was her favorite song that night at Atwood Hall.

“A lot of that bands at that time were a bunch of hippies,” Erlanger said. “And Springsteen didn’t look like that. He looked more like a biker, pre-hippie era.”

Sounds of change

Springsteen was a different sound from what people were used to in the early ‘70s, Erlanger added.

“At that time, a lot of bands were unscripted and they would play a song and have a jam in the middle, stuff like that, and it was very loose,” Erlanger said. “But Springsteen’s act was very scripted, building into these crescendos. And I don’t think people were used to that. I found it kind of contrived, that was my feeling about it. But everybody else seemed to be eating it up.”

Erlanger said while he kind of liked Springsteen, he didn’t go crazy over him as did so many concertgoers.

“I was thinking his lyrics were like he was trying to be like Bob Dylan but not quite succeeded, ‘Blinded by the Light’ and scared of the night, things like that,” Erlanger continued.  “He was OK but he was not great.”

In addition to The Boss, The Big Man, Mighty Max and The Professor, Polsky also gave high marks to organist Danny Federici and bassist Garry Tallent in her review.

“Through sheer professionalism combined with humor, emotion, and charisma, Bruce Springsteen gave Clark a show that won’t soon be forgotten — a synthesis of rock and jazz that communicates on the level of pure soul,” the Scarlet review said.

Dimitri agrees.

“You could see the music moving back and forth among the various players, whether it was Bruce with his guitar, Clarence with his sax, Roy with the keyboards, Max with the drums,” Dimitri said. “It just moved around so much back and forth among them and building to crescendos that just blew you away.”

A legendary sax player

Like Polsky, Dimitri had high marks for the shared chemistry between Clemons and Springsteen.

“I have not seen a lot of rock bands that had a saxophone player in them. And Clarence Clemons would come in on those saxophone solos and just blow the lid off of the place,” Dimitri said. “Clearly, Bruce and Clarence stuck out, man. Those were two imposing figures on the stage that drew you right in. It was hard to take your eyes off them. It was a stark contrast, absolutely, but they fit together like hand and glove. And they played off each other back and forth,”

At Clark, Springsteen played the yet-to-be-released tracks “She’s the One” and “Jungleland” (both off “Born to Run”) for the first time for a Worcester crowd at Clark University.

“One of the other songs that really struck me and I didn’t really know what it was at the time was 'Jungleland,’” Dimitri said, “When '“'Born to Run'”' came out the next year, I immediately recognized the song when I played it. Oh! That’s definitely one of the songs I heard him play.”

'What did we just see?'

At the end of Springsteen’s performance at Clark, a totally stunned and blown-away Dimitri and Kurz turned to each other and said in unison, “Oh, my God! What did we just see?”

“I say this all the time. Of all the bands that I have ever seen, I think the E Street Band is the tightest band,” Dimitri said. “I never seen anything quite like it. There’s no other way to describe it. It’s like they’re all connected all the time. Now, with the hindsight of 50 years, I realize that’s because of the workmanship of Bruce Springsteen bringing those guys together. They are just incredible.”

On Nov, 18, 1975, Springsteen played the Hammersmith Odeon in London. Kurz, who has seen the concert film made from the ’75 London show, says the Clark University show was a lot like that, just with fewer funny hats.

“Springsteen at Clark University was the best show I’ve ever seen,” Kurz said. “And I’ve seen the Rolling Stones in the third row at Shea Stadium. I’ve seen a lot of great shows. But I still have to go back to that because it has stuck with me all these years.”

'I was sort of baffled'

Clark University was the first and only time Erlanger saw Springsteen. Erlanger, who’s originally from New York, cites Bob Marley as the best show he ever saw. He also rates Bob Dylan high on his personal list. Erlanger said he saw Dylan in Sweden when he had a cold and he sounded better than he normally sounds.

“I thought Springsteen’s band sounded good, but they didn’t sound as good as everybody else seemed to think,” Erlanger said. “I was just sort of baffled by it. I thought they were good. I liked them. I didn’t understand what the mania was about.” 

The next day, Dimitri and Kurz went to Carl Seder's Music Mart in downtown Worcester. One of them bought “Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J.” while the other bought “The Wild, The Innocent and the E Street Shuffle.” Neither of them had enough money to buy both of them so they bought one each.

“It was probably, I don’t know, $3.99 at the time,” Dimitri said.  “I don’t remember which one of us took which one but eventually, I know for sure I went back at some point later and bought the other one that I didn’t have so I had them both and played the heck out of both of those.”

More than a moment

At the time of this writing, general admission, standing-room-only, verified resale tickets for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band’s twice-postponed April 12 concert at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., were going for $2,380 each on Ticketmaster.

To date, Dimitri has seen Springsteen nine times, five times in the ‘70s and three times with his first wife, who died 10 years ago.

Dimitri married his second wife six months ago. His current wife has never seen Bruce Springsteen but all of that is going to change when they see Springsteen on April 15 at the MVP Arena in Albany, New York, which will also be Dimitri’s 10th time seeing The Boss.
