Springsteen exhibit traveling to LA
Bruce Springsteen’s handwritten set lists and a favorite guitar are among the marquee items that will make a cross-country trip for a museum exhibit this fall.
The Grammy Museum announced Wednesday that Bruce Springsteen Live! will open Oct. 15 at the Grammy Museum
L.A. Live in Los Angeles. The interactive exhibit — which runs until April 2 — will feature Springsteen and the E Street Band’s live performance footage, instruments, stage costumes and exclusive interviews.
Springsteen’s exhibit ended its stint in New Jersey earlier this year.
“We’re also thrilled to offer a special, expanded exhibit with the help of Springsteen fans for a one-of-a-kind immersive experience,” said Jasen Emmons, chief curator and a vice president at the Grammy Museum. It will invite fans to submit videos of their concert experiences from Springsteen’s previous shows on Sept. 23 — the singer’s 73rd birthday.
Springsteen’s modified Fender guitar that was featured on several album covers such as “Human Torch” and “Born to Run” will be displayed. Other items will include stage clothing from Springsteen and members of E Street along with a signed itinerary from his Human Rights Tour, a six-week benefit tour in 1988.
A saxophone played by the late Clarence Clemons — who performed alongside Springsteen for 40 years — will be on display as well.
Through an interactive kiosk, visitors will be able to view Springsteen’s handwritten set lists and create their own encores
to compare against the performer’s original.
Comedian Arnold dies:
David A. Arnold, a comedian who was a producer of “Fuller House” and the creator of Nickelodeon’s “That Girl Lay Lay,” has died at age 54. Arnold’s family said in a statement Thursday that the doctors “ruled the cause of death due to natural causes.” His family said he died peacefully Wednesday at home.
Arnold was a stand-up comic who gained appeal through his perspective about fatherhood. He headlined the Netflix comedy specials “Fat Ballerina” and “It Ain’t for the Weak,” and also wrote episodes for “Meet the Browns,” “The Ricky Smiley Show” and “Tyler Perry’s House of Payne.”
