Bruce Covers INXS!

So earlier this week Bruce continued his streak of awesome covers in Australia.  I'm not nearly as big as an INXS fan as I am of AC/DC, but "Don't Change" is hands down my favorite INXS song, so again I'm very happy about this.

I've got to think this is Tom Morello's influence in the band, and if he keeps up with this then I take back every bad thing I've said about him.  Seeing Bruce tackle new material is always a plus, especially with such great songs!  I am loving seeing Bruce expand out of his comfort zone of his usual cover songs.

Not much else to say about this, so enjoy the video and I can't wait to see what Bruce and the band cover next!

Bruce covers AC/DC in Australia!

Ok so maybe it is not one of the metal songs I wished Bruce had covered, but it's close enough. 

As a massive AC/DC fan, I can't even begin to say how much I love this. First and foremost, it's Bruce playing a song he has never played live before. Secondly, not only is he covering one of my all-time favorite groups, but Bruce is branching out and trying something new. Third, it's just awesome. Seriously,  covering AC/DC in Australia might sound cheesey, and if another artist did it, it might come off that way.  But this is just pure kick ass rock and roll. Here's to hoping this is just the first of many surprises on this tour.

Video Spotlight - Just Like Fire Would

Can you feel that, gentle readers?  You feel that in the air?  That's the wonderful feeling you get when Bruce kicks off a tour.  His 2013 has just rolled out, beginning in Australia earlier this week.  He rolled out an impressive 3-hour setlist, highlighted by this rare cover of a Brisbane punk band.  I'm completely unfamiliar with the song, but Bruce's performance here is spectacular (and kudos to the man filming the performance).

We here at Legends of Springsteen have only been privy to see Bruce in the United States, but if he keeps busting out local covers (such as "Coma Girl" in Glastonbury), we may have to purchase a plane ticket and see him in a foreign land.
