Man, this video reminds me of how much I miss Dan Federici.  Rest in Peace, brother. May your accordion sound throughout the heavens.

[katmandu912]

Fun song to listen to, see you in detroit Bruce!.

[homerjsimpson215]

such a good song! I was there, it was such a good way to end the show!

[dizzymasekela]

The U.S. needs more immigrants and fewer Republicans. Waterboard Republicans then send them to secret prisons in Syria.

Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce!

[geedjb]

Are you delusional? My family came here a century ago, & didn't receive a penny of your tax $, or anyone else's. They worked hard, served in the military, PAID TAXES, & were productive citizens. Who are you to judge? You apparently have quite a superiority complex. I'll try going to private school, if you get some therapy for your arrogance. By the way,Springsteen's song is about the joy, hopes, & pain of all immigrants.You should try listening to it.

[Kubisa94]

i agree with you geedjb. i'm canadian but i know enough about your history to know "illegal" immigrants contributed to america and were as american as anyone. bruce would agree with you. great song

[geedjb]

The Boss reminds us that the USA is a nation of immigrants. God bless Bruce Springsteen & the E street Band for putting us in touch with the joy & hope of their great music!!

Legal immigrants

[geedjb]

My grandfather jumped ship to get here--- worked hard to raise a family & be successful. I feel I'm as American as anyone, even tho he didn't come in here legally. This happened more than many people realize. And that's a fact!

[reasonandfacts]

And it is a fact that we need laws and people should get in line like my family did.

[geedjb]

I agree that we need laws, but people have always done, & will always do what they must to survive. This is part of our history. Ask the original Americans -- the Indians-- if anyone was waiting in line to get into their country!!

[reasonandfacts]

Ahh. The good old Indian complaint. we are all immigrants, so it does not matter that your family broke laws and came here illegally while mine obeyed the law and followed the rules. So I guess we should import 300 million from China and take care of them as well. everyone has the right in your mind to come here. Just raise my taxes to 99% and we can do that for you.

[geedjb]

Who said anything about 300 million imported Chinese people? Please chill out--I don't think you have to worry about that. Companies like Wal-mart have done a good job sending good American jobs to China, so they won't have to come over here. China also holds most of debt for this country, & could easily plunge our economy into catastrophe. I think you're using the old tax complaint (99%---c'mon!) to make a ridiculous assumption that isn't at all based on reason, fact, or anything I said.

[reasonandfacts]

You can tell you have not taken a decent business class. You are basically saying that anyone should be allowed to come here at anytime. We not 300 million Chineese? Your family broke the law, why not bring in everyone else? So you think that Wal Mart should pay trillions more to hire unskilled labor here? Wal Mart has kept inflation down. Period. What do you think would happen to the world economy if China "plunged our economy into catastrophe"? What an ignorant statement.

[geedjb]

You have been putting words in my mouth that I never said. You seem to feel that your anti-immigrant mentality gives you the right to infer outlandish claims on other topics as well. By the way, Wal mart has a well deserved reputation for exploiting many of its workers, including the use of ILLEGAL immigrants on its cleaning crews. I'm sure a good business class would santion that, as long as it keeps inflation down. More for the rich--- less for the working stiff. What a great deal!!

[reasonandfacts]

Well, you should try to go to a private school so you can read. I am pro immigrant bu anti illegal immigrant like your family. I love the fact that my family played by the rules and yours came here illegally and were supported by our tax dollars. But what do you care? That is why I am sure you vote the way you do. I am sure you support the party that wants more illegals that break the law like your family to come in and vote for them.

[jevorro]

How many people of americans are really native americans? All of you are immigrants, your families only wanted to have a better life like the new immigrants

[Leeds3]

Practically NONE of the people in the USA are really "native" but that's not the bloody point and neither is it that I agree with you that 99% of the people who want to come to the US are just looking for a better life.

It IS about waiting your turn and not jumping queue. We should reward the 20 or so million that are waiting in line and banish the ones who jumped queue.

You'd be pissed if they cut you off in any other line in life, so try explaining it to the ones who are playing nice!

[uirish2]

AWESOME WITH A BIT OF IRISH SOUND

[kateborn2run]

BRUCE you're the best

[dabluz1125]

Proof that the worst part of any Bruce Springsteen concert is the knowledge that it is going to end eventually.
