Greetings from Asbury Park

Bruce returns home, plus your daily cartoons.

Greg Mitchell is the author of more than a dozen books including “The Tunnels” and “The Campaign of the Century” and now writer/director of three award-winning films aired via PBS, including “Atomic Cover-up” and “Memorial Day Massacre” (up for an Emmy). You can still subscribe to this newsletter for free.

Epic, some might say historic, Springsteen return last night to Asbury Park for a big gig right on the beach, plus guesting with Trey Anastasio. Actually had returned the night before, sitting in for a few oldies at the nearby Stone Pony (yes, we go back to meeting in both spots nearly 52 years ago). Here are just a few highlights, plus the usual cartoons. And even if you are blinded by the light, don’t forget to subscribe, it’s still free.

“Meeting Across the River” / “Jungleland”

One of the first songs I saw him do live, Dec. 7, 1972, “Growin’ Up.”

With Trey, “Kitty’s Back.”

With Patty, “Tougher Than the Rest.”

and he closed, post-curfew, with “Jersey Girl,” of course.

Monday Cartoons
