Bruce Springsteen will be teaming up with one of his favorite bands — the Dropkick Murphys — for a May 29th livestream concert at Boston's Fenway Park dubbed “Streaming Outta Fenway.” The gig itself will be played to an empty stadium — with “The Boss” performing “remotely.” The way the show will work will be that the Murphys and Springsteen will alternate songs — “We’ll play together — one of ours + one of his.”
Backstreets.com posted: “'Streaming Outta Fenway' will be a 'full electric' performance and serve as a benefit fundraiser for three charities: Boston Resiliency Fund, Habitat For Humanity, and Feeding America. According to the band's Instagram post this morning, the fundraising has already begun, and you can pitch in by texting 'DONATE' to 404-994-3559. Tune in May 29th at 6 p.m. ET, on Facebook or YouTube to watch.”
During a recent chat with The Bellissimo Files, Bruce Springsteen explained the feelings behind what it takes to be a performing entertainer: “The stage is a unique place; it's pretend, first of all. So, you're making believe — though, you're trying to experience and communicate authentic emotion. And you present a picture of a world and a life that your audience enters with you, where you communicate and experience a set of common values and dreams and interests with the people that you've been in conversation with for 40, or 45 years — or with some of them, only five years, or for the first time that night.”
