BRUCE BITES BACK WITH HUMOUR AFTER BEING SHUTDOWN

By Sally Bailey
Thu, 19 Jul 2012 11:20:07 +1000

Got to love The Boss. He has responded to his silencing at Hyde Park with humour whilst performing in Dublin and also observed the cities 11pm curfew.

Taking a cheeky approach to his displeasure at being silenced, Bruce set up a number of props and stunts to articulate that he was not happy, including a giant power switch on centre stage that came with a sign held up by Bruce saying "“Only the Boss says when to pull the plug”  before launching into Dancing In The Dark.

Prior to this stunt Springsteen played a cover "I Fought The Law and The Law Won" and later on in the evening made more fun when an actor dressed as a policeman appeared on stage and tried to arrest him.

Checkout the story behind the shutting down of Bruce and Paul McCartney below.
