The Boss is Back!
Today @ the Roadhouse At The Lakefront - 9 p.m.
Not that Bruce Springsteen was ever unpopular, commercially or critically, but since his 2002 poignant comeback album, The Rising, The Boss has grown even more revered. While his longtime followers at Rolling Stone were stamping five-star reviews on The Rising and his latest album, Magic, two glossy rock discs with a solemn side, younger musicians which had long been skeptical of The Boss’s wide appeal finally came around, as indie-rock bands like Arcade Fire and The Hold Steady began to trumpet Springsteen’s pure-spirited populism. Still known for their fist-pumping, workmanlike live shows, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band return to the Milwaukee tonight to play a 9 p.m. show at the Roadhouse At The Lakefront in conjunction with the Harley-Davidson 105th anniversary celebration.

I got to work the show(Bradley Center) for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band on March 17, 2008 and I felt they were high powered and his performance was at the top of his game. I like his gravelly voice better now then twenty years ago. I will miss the Harley show but I am sure the boss and band will not let his public dowh.

No, we didn't ask for an album featuring another recording of "Breathe," leading into "Time," leading into "Breathe (Reprise)," as happens on tracks two through four on Live in Gdansk. But Pink Floyd completists (we are legion) will want it anyway. Howeve

The last decade has not been kind to Milwaukee’s German restaurants, as names like Ritter’s Inn, the Bavarian Wurst Haus and even the venerable John Ernst have all closed their doors. In fact, only two of the old-timers remain: the oldest, Mad
