Bruce Springsteen is currently in Europe on tour with the E Street Band. During some downtime, The Boss found himself in a pub in Ireland chatting with the locals. What happened next is the stuff of dreams.
In the video below, Springsteen is seen sitting at a bar, and he’s singing “My Hometown” from his classic 1984 album Born in the U.S.A. The clip was shared by renowned Canadian journalist/host George Stroumboulopoulos. He captioned it, “Imagine going into the pub and Bruce Springsteen is singing one of his most beautiful songs.”
