Glory Days as Bruce thrills 65,000 fans
Daily Express
|July 08, 2023
BRUCE Springsteen fans were left dancing in the dark when music bosses previously decided a top UK gig was not born to run on.
They silenced the rocker's mic in 2012 after he broke a night-time noise curfew. But 11 years on, The Boss was back at Hyde Park for a sell-out gig...and saw the funny side.
As he belted out his hit Glory Days on Thursday, Bruce, 73, told the 65,000 fans: "It's time to go home...I'm telling you they are going to pull the ****ing plug again."
This time the earlier 7pm start planned by BST Hyde Park festival chiefs to observe Westminster Council's 10.30pm curfew worked and Bruce's epic three-hour gig ended at 10pm.
