    I’d like to know who said bruce can’t play. The guy is awesome!!! maybe not as flash as some other classic rock guitarists, but the guy is essentially a rhythm guitarist, and one of the best in the business

  2. This makes me smile for lots of reasons. Gaslight is awesome.

  3. Didn’t see these guys perform – Bruce made that Glastonbury what it was – he shook the ground! He put on a great show with these kids. He is one of their main influences apparently – listening to them, not hard to believe.

  4. those drums are freaking bouncing ha

  5. I went to high school with him in NJ. Hadn’t heard from him in years and then saw him on David Letterman one night. Blew my mind.

  6. Love the drummer! if the mighty max retires I think Bruce has a ready made replacement !

  7. these guys are solid. old school rock n roll

    I was at Glasto and missed this performance – gutted!

  9. Remember this well, Saturday afternoon Acoustic Tent at Glastonbury, there was a rumour going around that Bruce was going to perform with The Gaslight Anthem hence the crowd being twice as deep outside the tent prior to the show. we got there an hour early on purpose so we could get in, even missing Lady Ga Ga performing on one of the other stages. Worth every second “Cheers Bruce” for a great Saturday afternoon and a mind blowing Saturday evening set later on.

  10. Bruce has so many amazing songs in that head of his…how can he possibly remember every lyric…especially someone elses lyrics? He is a rock n roll God!

  11. What’s still more awesome is Brian Fallon coming on with Bruce at Hyde Park (the following day) and absolutely KILLING No Surrender with its composer standing there beaming like a proud papa. And no Telecaster: looks like a vintage Les Paul Junior.

  12. I was there! The surge in the crowd when he came on was incredible.

  13. That’s awesome – love it

  15. I see elsewhere on YT that Mike Ness/Social Distortion also does a song with them. I’m in.

  16. I cannot even explain how epic this whole set was!!! one of my top three of the whole festival!!

  17. BRUUUUUUUUCE!!

  20. professorbananas

    epic

  21. Awesome to have The Boss playing with them, not so awesome that he was just standing there most of the time and got the words wrong when he joined in. When I heard about this I thought he must’a sung a verse or something; that woulda been cool.

  22. who says bruce can’t play guitar? This is awesome, TGA held their own against one of the greatest men in rock and roll, They are the next big thing

  23. Bruce where is your Tele?!

  24. Epic
