the big man joined the band

When the change was made uptown
And the big man joined the band
From the coastline to the city
All the little pretties raise their hands
I'm gonna sit back right easy and laugh
When scooter and the big man bust this city in half
With a tenth avenue freeze-out, tenth avenue freeze-out
I was down in Wales for the weekend, in happenstance media fast mode, so I didn't even realize that Clarence Clemons had passed. Was it really three years ago that we saw the E Street Band at the Emirates (Icons passim)?

Too much perspective.
