Bruce Springsteen

IT’S looking like 2013 is the year of the veteran. First the Rolling Stones exceeded expectations at Glastonbury while at the same time Bruce Springsteen is busy proving that age has not wearied the Boss. After packed shows at Wembley and the Olympic Stadium, he’s travelling north for the opening night of Leeds’ longawaited new arena.
