E Street Radio Airs Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band’s 2012 Apollo Theater Concert
On the show’s four-year anniversary, SiriusXM presents an encore performance of the historic night.
On March 9, 2012, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band performed live from Harlem’s world-famous Apollo Theater in front of an exclusive group of SiriusXM listeners and celebrity guests. Now, on the show’s four-year anniversary, E Street Radio presents an encore performance of this historic night.
This special show at the Apollo Theater marked the first full performance for The E Street Band following the death of saxophonist Clarence Clemons.
“We’re missing a few people tonight,” Bruce said early on in the show. “But if you’re here, and we are here, they are here.”
The concert was also a passing of the torch to Clarence’s nephew, Jake Clemons, who is now a staple of the lineup.
Bruce ripped through a career-spanning, 23-song set, including “Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out” (during which the band stopped cold at the mention of “The Big Man” for what turned into a raucous moment of silence) and a cover of Sam and Dave’s “Hold On, I’m Comin’.”
Tune in to relive the concert in full on Wednesday, March 9, at 12pm and 8pm ET on E Street Radio.
