Met Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band last night

After sitting about 2 metres away from The Boss and his band at the hotel bar in Adelaide Australia last night I managed, although Bruce was tough which he has been for the past 3 days I've been following him finally signed my album. It was 3am and both Bruce and Steve were extremely pissed (as you will see with Steves 'was here' mark). Met all the rest of the band, had a chat with Nils about working with Ringo Starr. It has been a vey surreal few days.

Very nice & interesting story. Now if you were to post that Speingateen without your story, I bet most folks on here would say it was not real. His sig has really changed lately.

Hi Lewis, yes, that is a real wow! Both Bruce and Stevie must have been really pissed (don't know if anger or something else bothered them though). Bruce`s doesn't surprise me, seen a couple of similar ones before, but Stevie`s really amazes me here...lol

And Mike; his last album is very good in my opinion, sounded strange at first, but it really grows on you the more you listen to each of the songs.

Little Stevie looks like he's ready to whack you! I wonder if yours is the first "High Hopes" LP signed? Gotta be a candidate for "most rushed" Bruce signature of the year! (Or ever?)

Stevie was pretty pissed and he was happy in meeting people and having pictures with, I was the second person to get one and he was in good spirits, perhaps just too intoxicated to pose.

The Boss was signing like that for pretty much everyone except when signing people arms for tattoos.

I think the albums great, I know the sigs aren't amazing but we had fun getting them.

Ouch ! It's probably one of the worst signature I ever seen ! But who cares ? You met the Man ! I guess you didn't ask Steve if he wanted a beer ? Great story and congrats !

Nice story and congrats on meeting the man. Having met him last tour and being lucky enough to snag two signatures from him as made me a even bigger fan. I will be traveling to the Cincinnati and Albany shows in hopes of adding more sigs this year.
