The spirit of protest and resistance fills First Avenue at benefit concert for the families of Renee Good and Alex Pretti

“Well they blew up the Chicken Man in Philly last night…” Return with Bruce Springsteen to the stark themes and landscapes of his 1982 album, performed in Nebraska Live just as he originally recorded it, with a guitar and a mic and harmonica neck rack.

Bruce Springsteen made his first concert appearance of 2026 on Saturday night (Jan. 17) and had some stern words during his time on stage regarding recent events in America.

Record stores, radio stations and — most of all — rock music fans are gearing up for the imminent release of the next Bruce Springsteen album, an anxiously awaited, five-record, 40-song, live set. It features three hours and 35 minutes of music.
