So, it's been thirty years for me since my first Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band event at Rutgers. I wrote a review a few years back on Greasylake.org and said that this night "lit the fuse". Little did I know that Bruce would write a song called "The Fuse" as few years later. After 106 shows, the fuse is still buring brightly in my life. This show at Rutgers was a perfect show. Bruce and his 'blood brothers' making the audience laugh, cry and beg for more. I was surrounded by friends that I would know forever - and still do some thirty years later. Wow. I have a lot of new friends that are Bruce friends, and that has enriched my life to no end. That night. What a night. The song "Night" opened the show - as it usually did on that tour. Thereafter, a Best of Bruce cornucopia of songs that we would forever love. How could we go wrong? It was the time of our life. Wow! Rap

This was my first of, to date, 100 Bruce shows. This lit the fuse! We did not know what we would have for the rest of our lives! A great night - the beginning of everything. Sixteen songs that seemed like magic.
