Bruce Springsteen played a surprise set at the Light of Day Parkinson’s benefit at the Paramount Theater in Asbury Park last night (January 18, 2014).

Here’s Rolling Stone‘s write-up.

And here’s more about the show from nj.com.

Springsteen is backed by Joe Grushecky and The House Rockers plus David Bryan on Keyboard and E Street Band Member Eddie Manion on sax
