Bruce Springsteen<\/a> made a surprise live appearance Saturday at the opening of a new exhibit honoring the rocker in his New Jersey hometown.<\/p>\n

The career-spanning \u201cSpringsteen: His Hometown\u201d exhibit<\/a> in Freehold, New Jersey held its opening night gala, featuring performances by Bobby Bandiera and Joe Grushecky and the Houserockers. During the latter band\u2019s set, Springsteen \u2013 who attended the gala hosted by Monmouth County Historical Association \u2013 came onstage to perform his 1988 song \u201cLight of Day.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t stay long,\u201d Springsteen told the attendees. \u201cI\u2019ve got my family in the city, but I wanted to just come down and thank everybody for supporting the Historical Association\u2026 It\u2019s nice to be honored in my hometown.\u201d<\/p>\n

Springsteen: His Hometown features 150 pieces, including 20 donated by Springsteen as well as a mailbox where people can leave Springsteen fan mail.  The exhibit opened to the general public Sunday and will remain at the Historical Association until the fall of 2020.<\/p>\n

While Springsteen hasn\u2019t toured in the interim between his Broadway residency and Western Stars<\/em>, he has popped up onstage on a handful of occasions, including a surprise set at the Blinded by the Light<\/em> premiere<\/a>, a cameo during a Southside Johnny show<\/a> and the upcoming Stand Up for Heroes benefit<\/a> on November 4th.<\/p>\n
