After 2 years a bunch of us Spring-Nuts once again gathered in the Promised Land (Asbury Park, NJ) to witness the best Bruce Springsteen/ESB cover band on the planet...let's just say it can't get any better - each member hit every note with deep passion and joy - boy did we all need this craziness...The setting --yep, The Wonder Bar -- only adding to the energy and intensity. Yes, "it delivers the raw intensity and swagger reminiscent of the Boss himself" (Tramps website)..the theme was deep cuts and boy that makes it even tougher. But, they are tougher than the rest. The best for me was when they counted into "If I Was A Priest" -the first time hearing it 'live' was simply emotional given what we've all endured...Live music was first to go and last to return but man...thank goodness Tramps Like Us are around to fill our lives with hopes and dreams...and yes, Bruce will be announcing his tour soon (fingers crossed). Lastly, the very idea that I can hire this band for a private party...gets me thinkin'!
Thank you Mark, Tom, Ken, Marty and Scott - Tramps like us...baby we were born to rock it out together! See you further on up the road (Nov 20 2021 - WB - Repeat?)
