My dad and I always bonded over music, especially Bruce. One of the first songs I ever sung was his live version of Santa Claus Is Commin To Town. When I heard another version, I told my parents that they were singing it wrong. lol With fathers day Sunday, and reading this today I was sad. I miss my dad, and it's so sad to hear that Clarence has passed. I would have loved to see them live.<br /><br />Blessings, Kisses & Coladas<br />Jenny @ Jems From JennyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3950298269842731131.post-28123079645950980102011-06-19T17:35:53.279-07:002011-06-19T17:35:53.279-07:00RIP Clarence. This was sad news to hear today.
I ...RIP Clarence. This was sad news to hear today.<br /><br />I grew up near Patty and close enought to Jersey to love me some Bruce! One of my all time favs was on rotation today. I'm on Fire. I could listen to that song every single day. Over and over.<br /><br />I wouldn't count Bruce out. Maybe not the same without Clarence, but he'll tour again. I just know it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3950298269842731131.post-43314240773584951522011-06-19T17:03:43.337-07:002011-06-19T17:03:43.337-07:00As an avid follower of Tom Petty & the Heartbr...As an avid follower of Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, I can appreciate your love of Springsteen.<br /><br />When the "Born in the U.S.A." tour made its second round in the US, back in 1985, at Giants Stadium in New Jersey, my hubs and I went with friends who had two extra tickets...for absolute front row seating. And, I managed to sneak-in my 35mm camera under my shirt while my g/f hid my huge zoom lens under hers. It was an incredible concert and Clarence came to the edge of the stage and reached down to shake my hand.<br /><br />Hearing of the Big Man's passing saddened me greatly; Clarence was a gentleman and fabulous talent. He was the grounding factor in the E-Street Band and, as Katie from CNG said, his passion brought a completeness to Bruce's music.<br /><br />Terrific post!Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00983686239033756332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3950298269842731131.post-59450638537549954352011-06-19T16:50:26.495-07:002011-06-19T16:50:26.495-07:00The passion you feel for The Boss reminds me a lot...The passion you feel for The Boss reminds me a lot of my passion for Dave Matthews Band. LeRoi Moore, DMB's saxophonist, recently died, too, and with his passing, some of the soul of the band died as well. It'll never be the same. I'm happy to say I was able to see LeRoi twice in concert...I know I will probably see DMB again, but I'll always miss the lovely sound of that sax, belting passionate tunes out above the chaotic perfection of the rest of the band. <br /><br />Anyway, I'm pretty obsessed if you can't tell! I loved this tribute to your favorite band and Clarence.
