Springsteen's Powerful Performance at Light of Day Benefit: A Night of Music and Meaning
Bruce Springsteen made a surprise appearance at the annual Light of Day benefit in Red Bank, N.J., where he performed a 75-minute set with his backing band, Joe Grushecky and the Houserockers. The event, which supports the fight against Parkinson's disease and related neuro-degenerative diseases, has raised over seven million dollars so far. Springsteen's performance included fan favorites like "Atlantic City" and a pointed message about recent events in America, particularly the death of Renee Good in Minnesota. The set list also featured songs like "Darkness on the Edge of Town" and "The Promised Land," dedicated to Good. The evening ended with a performance of "Light of Day" and a birthday dedication to Bob Benjamin.
