Sure enough, he walked out of the wings to sing the 1975 <em>Born To Run<\/em> classic along with \u201cSun City\u201d and \u201cI Don\u2019t Want to Go Home\u201d as the crowd went insane.<\/p>\n<p>Springsteen\u2019s appearance at the show was widely predicted by fans after he announced he\u2019d be appearing at a Netflix event in Los Angeles that happened to take place the day after the Little Steven concert. He played with Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul at some of their earliest shows after reforming in 2017, but this is the first time they\u2019ve done \u201cSun City\u201d together. Van Zandt recently <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/steve-van-zandt-and-the-disciples-of-soul-play-sun-city-for-first-time-in-32-years-825601\/\">brought the song back into his repertoire<\/a> after a journalist in New Zealand told him how popular it was in his country.<\/p>\n<p>The appearance at this Little Steven show caps off a busy few weeks for Springsteen. He made his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/bruce-springsteen-first-live-performance-2019-danny-clinch-822071\/\">first live appearance of 2019<\/a> at the Kristen Ann Carr Benefit on April 13th. Twelve days after that, he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/bruce-springsteen-western-stars-album-827040\/\">announced his new album <em>Western Stars<\/em><\/a> and shared the track \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-features\/bruce-springsteen-hello-sunshine-song-828682\/\">Hello Sunshine<\/a>.\u201d Just two days after that, he made <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/bruce-springsteen-asbury-park-film-screening-828692\/\">a surprise appearance at the Asbury Park Music and Film Festival<\/a> to share unseen concert video from his vault. He\u2019s appearing alongside Martin Scorsese Sunday night at the opening of Netflix\u2019s third annual FYSEE experience in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<p>His plans for the remainder of 2019 are a mystery. <em>Western Stars<\/em> comes out on June 14th, but it\u2019s unclear if he\u2019ll tour behind it. Springsteen has gone on the road to support all of his prior albums with the exception of 1982\u2019s <em>Nebraska<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/bruce-springsteen-surprise-set-steven-van-zandt-band-concert-831404\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Rolling Stone<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul were nearly done with their show at the Saban Theater in Beverly Hills, California on Saturday night when the band kicked into \u201cTenth Avenue Freeze-Out,\u201d causing many in the crowd to frantically reach for their cellphones because they knew exactly what that meant: Bruce Springsteen was in the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[50],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-2443771","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-music-news"},"acf":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-06-18 13:33:54","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"distributor_meta":false,"distributor_terms":false,"distributor_media":false,"distributor_original_site_name":"KSPN The Valley&#039;s Quality Rock","distributor_original_site_url":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn","push-errors":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2443771","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2443771"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2443771\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2443771"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2443771"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2443771"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
