Currently we're a whole 76 days away from Bruce Springsteen's forthcoming appearance at the Sommet Center. Had the date not been moved, we'd only be seven days away. Sigh. Luckily tonight's tribute to the Boss at the Basement can serve as musical methadone while we--and I say "we" because I expect you all to go the Bruce Show--brave the agonizing two-month wait for what is sure to be the best night since Obama trounced McCain.

Tonight's tribute was put together by Jacob Jones and will feature performances from Wess Floyd and the Daisycutters, Chris Chofton and the Alcohol Stuntband, Will Morgan Holland, Korean Is Asian, Derek Hoke, Taylor Bates & Bern Kelly. To properly simulate the Springsteen live experience I think I'm gonna bring the "Streets of Fire" request sign that I take to all his shows. I hope the bands don't mind.
