Worship, mortality, and hope in Springsteen’s ‘Road Diary’

Bruce Springsteen is a global phenomenon. His 'Best of' Album, reached No. 1 in the UK and USA album charts at the end of 2024. Last year his tour was No. 5 in the world for gross income. Not bad for a 75-year-old!

Being a lifelong fan (who can’t quite justify live ticket prices nowadays), I have to content myself with recordings, so I especially enjoyed the tour documentary Road Diary on the streaming platform Disney Plus.

The documentary offers insights into the history of Springsteen’s band, 'the E Street Band,' and features clips of them practicing and performing. It’s not quite the same as attending a concert, or even watching a full-length concert video, as you only get song segments interspersed with interviews.
