Saturday
Fans become familiar with Bruce Springsteen‘s music in many different ways, but I have my dad to thank for introducing me to Bruce. Before I came along, my dad was one of the lucky ones at Hammersmith in the 70s. At Wembley in 1981, when he was supposed to be taking it easy in a wheel chair…

Two days before seeing Bruce Springsteen at Wembley I declared to a fellow fan “If they open with Land of Hope and Dreams, I will cry”. So when the first few notes blasted out across Wembley Stadium on Saturday, I knew I was in for one of the most spectacular concerts I would ever see. …

*This post first appeared on Time Out, on Friday 14th June. Living in London, I’ve developed quite a list of my favourite places to eat, drink and be merry. Whilst I appreciate it’s unlikely this will ever happen, I can’t help but daydream about the chance of taking Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band…

For any of you who follow me on Twitter, you’ll realise there’s a third ‘b’ I’m developing a bit of a liking too. That’s right, I’m really hitting it off with my new road bike. Who knew cycling could be so fun! Plus, cycling means I can eat more burgers. With this in mind I…

*This list is waaaay out of date now. I should really write another… My first Springsteen date of 2013 is edging closer. After the tour finished in 2012, Springsteen fans went through an unsettling period of not knowing when the next set of live dates would be. Now it’s upon us and I’m starting to…

I’m smiling so much I’ve given myself a headache. It’s not from the carafe of wine I’ve been persuaded into at 11.30am, and no I’m not daydreaming about Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band either. My friend is speaking to me, but I’m too distracted by the synthy ‘beats’ of one of my favourite songs to hear…

With the Australian leg of the Wrecking Ball tour over, it’s a matter of days before Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band arrive in Europe for the next set of dates. I’ve been waiting for this since I saw the band get rudely cut off mid-song in London last year. I’m counting down the…

Momzy Burger is famous in Antigua, and you have my word that they taste especially good at 4am after a night of rum punch in the Rasta Shack, which is the place to party on this fun island. There’s no Springsteen played at the Rasta Shack, but I was introduced to a great song ‘Dutty Angela‘…

Dirty Burger has been open since late Summer 2012 but it has never really been on my list to try. Why? Well, there was just too much hoo haa around it. If there’s one thing I hate, it’s hype. So I dug my heels in, put it off, put it off, put if off…and let…
