play it forward

Last year, Bruce Springsteen recalled being a kid:

I had a fantasy of Mick Jagger getting sick before his show at Asbury Park Convention Hall and the Stones needing me, of course, to get up there and take over, which of course I would do, pimply faced kid.

And all of the crowd of course goes insane and they’re not so anxious to have Mick back. So I was dreaming about that when I was 15.

It does my heart good to see him still keeping it in mind, pulling a teenager up out of the audience to jam with the band.
