Just came home from Springsteen. His first concert since his keyboardist died last week. First time I've seen him. About the sixth time Buffy has seen him. He still puts on a heck of a show. Sang some songs tonight that, according to Buffy, he doesn't generally do including "Rosalita", "Because the night" and "Backstreets". Of note also, we wonder if Clarence Clemons is sick. He looks like he's lost weight. He moved around very slow. And they had a chair placed near him so he could sit down, which he did often.
