Gestern wurde -endlich- die E Street Band in die Rock and Roll Hall of Fame aufgenommen. Wer Interesse hat sich die Rede vom Boss durchzulesen, findet den Text hier , dazu nachfolgend ein Auszug daraus. Ich schätze bei den Reden vom Boss immer, dass es nicht nur Lobhudelei ist, selbst bei der Trauerrede für Clarence war dies damals so …
Now, E Street was a dance; was an idea; was a wish; was a refuge; was a home; was a destination; was a gutter dream; and finally, it was a band. We struggled together, and sometimes, we struggled with one another. We bathed in the glory, and often, the heartbreaking confusion of our rewards together. We’ve enjoyed health, and we’ve suffered illness and aging and death together. We took care of one another when trouble knocked, and we hurt one another in big and small ways.

Clarence doesn't leave the E Street Band when he dies. He leaves when we die
