Bruce Springsteen Plays His Longest Concert Ever
Gibson Guitar: Electric, Acoustic and Bass Guitars, Baldwin Pianos

The Boss, renowned for giving value for money with lengthy sets, just played a show that went on for more than four hours.

According to NME.com, Bruce Springsteen played a 33 song set that lasted for four hours and six minutes in Hensinki's Olympiastadion in Finland.

In September, Bruce Springsteen kicks off the second U.S. leg of his tour to promote his new album, Wrecking Ball.

He's legendary for High Octane marathon concerts, not surprised he pulled out all the stops in Helsinki. Also one of the first famous rock stars I read about who worked out constantly to stay in top shape, so he could carry off a proper full length show. He used to suffer constant back pain years ago, not sure if he still has that ailment or not...:think:

It's both good and bad when a headliner like the Boss plays a full set like that without an opening act, unless there was a band warming up the audience before he took the stage. Yes put on a 3+ hour set when I saw them on the Going for the One tour, and it was fantastic. But you do miss out on seeing an up and coming band too.

Oh well, the Legend lives on.:bow:
