Tom Petty has revamped his set list.  Bruce Springsteen has never had one.  Today we talk with The Boss about how nervous he gets before every show and how the reaction of the audience controls what song is coming up next. 

Sound a little out of control?  Make no mistake...playing live with Bruce Springsteen is no different than holding down a real job.  Nobody knows what The Boss is doing next.  There are no set lists.  According to E Street Band member Nels Lofgren...the roar of the crowd influences Bruce to change the first song. 

Bruce was recently asked if being on the road with him was like running a marathon.

Foreigner fans can reunite.  The battle lines between Mick Jones and Lou Gramm have faded like invisible ink.    Who better to help silence the eight year old beer brawl than Billy Joel  who announced their return at last week's Songwriters Hall of Fame induction.   Backed by the house band, the duo performed the songs ‘Juke Box Hero’ and ‘I Want to Know What Love Is,’ and were joined on the latter by Anthony Morgan’s Inspirational Choir of Harlem. Another songwriting legend, Billy Joel, inducted the duo into the Hall of Fame, joking that Foreigner really were musical heroes, “back when there were jukeboxes.” Jones first broke the news of the event to us in a February interview, where he declared that he was “so proud of what Lou and I achieved in those early years and throughout the time that we were together. I think it’s the first time that we’ve been recognized for our work and our writing, which was really the foundation of what we did together, as much as the performing.” See them perform

The one thing I loved most about being with Pam Stone was how incredibly important it is to be extremely "Real."  For two years Anthony and I would sit across from each other rolling our Radio trained eyes while Pam bounced around those speakers like a wild normal person.

She would love John Caparulo!  Not because he's a Redneck from Ohio but a total connection to keeping it "Real" 

John appears at the Comedy Zone Charlotte this weekend.  cltcomedyzone.com

Caparulo, known to many as "Cap," got his first big breaks appearing at the 2003 Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal, where he was offered a sitcom, and on The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn. He has since appeared on The Tonight Show, was featured on Blue Collar Comedy Tour: The Next Generation hosted by Bill Engvall, and was one of the comedians documented on Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Tour. He hosted Mobile Home Disaster on CMT, and played the part of 'Brian' on the short-lived ABC sitcom "Work It."
He also has a comedy special that aired on Comedy Central on December 21, 2008
