I\u2019m talking about Bruce Springsteen<\/p>\n

Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen was born on the 23rd<\/span>\u00a0of September in 1949, the son of Douglas and Adele Springsteen in Freehold, New Jersey. His father, who was of Irish\/Dutch ancestry, found it hard to hold down a job, and was regularly unemployed. His mother, who was of Italian ancestry, was the main breadwinner.\u00a0 She worked as a legal secretary.\u00a0 When he was seven, Bruce at age 13 saw Elvis on TV and was inspired to scrape together enough money to buy his own guitar. In 1965 at age 16 his mother borrowed $60 to buy him a Kent guitar.\u00a0 He became the lead guitarist and singer in The\u00a0Castiles<\/span>. In 1966,\u00a0the Castiles<\/span>recorded but never released two songs co-written by Bruce.<\/p>\n

In the late1960\u2019s,Bruce played for\u00a0Earth<\/span>and failed his test to be drafted into the army.\u00a0 He joined with Steve Van Zandt, Danny Federici and Vini “Mad Dog<\/span>” Lopez and Vinnie Roslin in a band called\u00a0Child.<\/span>It was around this time that he got the nickname \u201cThe Boss\u201d because he collected the money at the gigs and distributed it among the band.\u00a0 During this period he also played for the Rogues, Sundance Blues Band, Dr. Zoom and the Sonic Boom before he setup the Bruce Springsteen Band with Lopez, Federici, Van Zandt, pianist and guitarist David Sancious, bassist Garry Tallent (no relation), and a four-piece brass section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
