80s Home > 80s Happenings 80s Happenings08.22.08: Bruce Springsteen on tour and better than ever!
Bruce Springsteen took the stage at the Sommet Center in Nashville and played a 3 hour set with joyful abandon. Appearing to have the voice and stamina of a twenty year old, Bruce took audience requests and delivered a rockin’ show that satisfied fans of all ages. Reaching back to the early days with a story about his first guitar during “Spirit in the Night” all the way up to an encore of the new “Girls in Their Summer Clothes” dedicated to Tennessee ladies, Bruce and the E Street Band proved it all night that he is The Once and Forever Boss. Without a doubt the best concert I’ve ever been to. – submitted by Julie, Birmingham Link to Tour site: http://www.brucespringsteen.net/news/index.html Some Bruce Springsteen videos to get you in the mood:

07.01.08: New 80s inspired musical in NYC this summer, The Johnny Musical,
as a part of the New York International Fringe Festival. It answers the
question, What happened to the bullying blonde jock in all those
beloved '80s movies AFTER he lost to the scrappy young underdog? When
Johnny Zabka loses for the first time ever, he has no idea what to do with
his life. Shunned by his friends and evicted by his parents, Johnny must
find a new way to win or else face the fact that he just may have peaked
at the ripe old age of eighteen. With a musical score that not only echoes
the music of the 1980s, but also finds a place for tap and Irish-themed
numbers, The Johnny is a lively musical that is full of laughs and
heart. For more info visit
