Real need fatherdaughter

On the tour to promote the album, springsteen played sell-out stadium concerts across britain and made a sizeable donation to the fund set up for the wives and children of striking miners. But the real need in the father-daughter relationship to healthily recalibrate in america is the great unspoken of out of wedlock births and lack of enduring family structure plaguing black america. Mark brown reports finally, after skipping us for the past two tours, bruce springsteen the e street band returns with an april 10 date at the pepsi center (and some suspiciously free dates after that to add perhaps another show). Additional two-night stands are booked for april 21-22 at the td banknorth garden in boston, ma, and april 28-29 at the wachovia spectrum in philadelphia, pa. The garbled-blues good eye, one of the album weirdest tracks, ratchets springsteen distorted vocals to a yelping beat and electrified banjo, but like his recent one-off download a night with the jersey devil, it feels like merely a demonstration of studio technique.
