2019-01-25 - ALLSTON'S MR. MUSIC, BOSTON, MA

No set details known.

Bruce visited Mr. Music in Allston to try out some guitars with his friend, Boston music legend Peter Wolf. Mr. Music store manager and co-owner Tom Barone says Springsteen and Wolf spent about 40 minutes in the shop, hanging out in the Telecaster section and just minding their own business, without being recognized by other shoppers. Springsteen also picked up and played a vintage Gibson Byrdland guitar from the '70s. At one point, Springsteen also pointed to something on the wall, which Barone says was an old signed photo of The Boss from the '70s, a copy that dates back to the Harvard Avenue store's early days as a ticket seller.
