Tell us a bit about the gig: We play absolutely nothing but Bruce Springsteen’s songs from all era’s of his enormous career. From the early epics to the radio hits, through to the songs of his last album. It’s a big seven-piece band onstage giving it all they’ve got to recreate that big ‘E-Street Band’ sound.
Why Springsteen? His music speaks to everyone. And well, our lead singer likes to sing his lungs out for three hours, so it was perfect fit.
Thunder Road Vs. Born In The USA, which track rocks the hardest? I’m going for Thunder Road – that song has it all.
Favourite Springsteen album and why: Darkness on the edge of town. Dark and moody. and Bruce’s voice was so raw and powerful. Haven’t got it? Get it!
Who’s The Boss in your band? Some say it’s Gav, the lead vocalist, but we all know it’s the drummer. He hits things for a living, enough said.
If Bruce Springsteen and Tom Petty had a fight to the death, who would win? Bruce is 64 and looks like a tank. He’d snap Petty like a twig (sorry Tom)!
If you could ask Bruce on thing, what would it be? Why Patty, Bruce? Why?
Will there be Bruce-style stage diving at the show? If you promise to carry Gav all the way over to the bar, then yeah, he’d be up for it!
When’s the gig? Thunder Road presents the songs of Bruce Springsteen will be rocking out the Corner Hotel on Friday October 25.
