"Together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness, I'll love you with all the madness in my soul..."

I watched the Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band concert on HBO last night. It was exceptional, but can I just tell you how supremely weird it was to see The Sopranos's Sylvio (Steven Van Zandt) up there on stage rockin' out in his full Rock 'n Roll Pirate Regalia? Springstreen lived up to his reputation as the hardest working man in rock 'n roll, and the encore performance of "American Skin" (about the NYPD shooting of Amadou Diallo) was riveting. Especially since the venue was Madison Square Garden.
