While the adolescent pumps his way into his hat....


Our ever-hip Governor Jody Rell has officially proclaimed October 2, 2007 to be Bruce Springsteen Day in Connecticut. The Boss (Bruce, not Jody) kicks off his Magic tour tonight at the luxurious Civic Center in downtown Hartford. Ran into Todd/Liz at Slider's on their journey to the concert. Will try to get a report while playing golf with Todd on Wednesday.

POST-SHOW:
Bruce kills them in Hartford! Eric Danton review "...And then it happened, on “Night”: the Rock ’n’ Roll Moment. It’s that spark when an instant frozen in time seems to suddenly unspool, when the whole band locks in, turns a corner together and just takes off. Little Steven Van Zandt’s over sharing the microphone with Springsteen, Clemons plants himself like an anchor and pumps his lungs into that sax, bassist Gary Tallent bops in the back and drummer Max Weinberg holds it all together with no-frills rhythm."
