E Street Keyboardist Danny Federici Returns, Springsteen Books Acoustic Show

3/21/08, 10:35 am EST

Last night E Street Band keyboardist Danny Federici — sidelined from the tour since last November as he recovers from melanoma — made a surprise appearance midway through the Bruce Springsteen show at the Canseco Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The founding E Streeter played on “The Promised Land,” “4th of July, Asbury Park” and “Spirit In The Night” during the main set and later returned to the stage for the five-song encore. Steve Van Zandt told Rolling Stone last week that Federici was doing great and his recovery had been “a bit miraculous.” In other Springsteen news, he’s playing a rare solo acoustic show at the Count Basie Theater in Red Bank New Jersey on May 7th. Tickets are available through an online auction with a minimum bid of $1,000. That may be a bit steep, but all proceeds benefit the theater, which hasn’t been upgraded in over eighty years. Bids as high as $4,000 have already come in from as far as Italy and Scotland. The auction ends on April 2nd.

You don’t like the Boss Mr. (or Ms.) Who Cares Anymore…..don’t listen. Change the dial. By the way, your limited ability to spell speaks volumes….

Pay no attention to the ignorant, but pity them for their ignorance, and their inability to feel, is probably the result of brain damage at birth, or perhaps their upbringing by white trash parents. Yes indeed, snore cough fart is about all the monosyllabic dialog they are capable of. Burn a cross lately, ignorant ones? You’ve got enough hate and disrespect for it.

Here is some of Bruce’s “political puke” to which our ignorant friend refers (must have got his mommy to write for him as he is obviously illiterate and hasn’t read any of Bruce’s actual statements):

“He (Obama) speaks to the America I’ve envisioned in my music for the past 35 years, a generous nation with a citizenry willing to tackle nuanced and complex problems, a country that’s interested in its collective destiny and in the potential of its gathered spirit.”

R.I.P. Danny Federici.

I am a true fan—seen Bruce 23 times (a novice compared to many!) between the ages of 15 and 42—as recently as 3 weeks ago. I know that I will be inspired by him for the rest of my life.

I know that Bruce will continue to bless the planet with incredible music and lyrics, but the band will never truly be whole again.

Danny we will miss you.
