I will see Bruce Springsteen live: a bucket list dream answered

This is the glorious Asbury Park, a photograph taken in winter three years ago.  The Stone Pony is off the boardwalk to the left.  A glassblower is staying warm beside his fire.  Beth is singing behind the camera.



Springsteen, as readers of this blog know, has played a central role in my creative life.  I love and live by many of his songs. He takes me to a thrumming place.  I own the albums.  I know the words.  I dance alone.  I have seen his band play live.  I have not, despite a life-long yearning, seen him.



In September, that will change, thanks to an early morning ticket purchase.  I will be on the field at Citizen's Park.  I will see, at long last, Springsteen for myself.
