Springsteen wore several friendship bracelets on his left wrist when he played the AmericanAirlines Arena Saturday night The Central American yarn bangles symbolized a show astonishing for its generosity given by an artist hitting a new collaborative peak The importance of human companionship (especially if you have famous friends like Bono and Dion of Dion and the Belmonts to duet with) was a central theme of his only South Florida stop of the world tour for his album The Rising Foremost in evidence was bond with his Street Band most of whom have played with him for decades Just three songs into the more-than-2'j-hour-long show Clarence Clemons played a sax solo on the 1978 song Promised Land whose sweet tones sounded freshly minted Springsteen answered him on the har- monica then without pause sang the chorus as if he were still exhaling the breath first inhaled by Clemons The evening was full of such moments of intense musicality Considering the longevity of their career the tightness is not so surprising But the way they continue to foster new tones on Worlds Apart a song from that newest album several members created sounds inspired by Arabic music shows they are more than just the greatest house band in the world as Springsteen said at one point not just here to party still making sounds up too Singer and guitarist Patti Scialfa for instance has never sung as beautifully as she did on Empty Sky when she answered earthly plea for his loved return with her otherworldly voice The song is one of several from The Rising sung from the perspective of a widow or widower the album was prompted by the number of people from native New Jersey who died Sept 11 200L The fact that Springsteen was dueting with his own wife made the performance all the more haunting

Carmela Soprano Falco and Tucci give their PEREZ last performance Dec 29 Compiled by ERIN WRIGHT from wire reports cyrida The View all an Perez 'Sopranos' alum set for Broadway CONCERT REVIEW the evening as the full but not sold-out venue was treated to several surprise guests Bono and Dave Stewart (The Eurythmics) came out halfway through the show and sang Because the Night Later Springsteen brought out Dion one of his earliest influences for If I Should Fall Behind The singer of the hit The Wanderer hit the high notes with a pure grace then Springsteen joined in for a plaintive harmony As if that enough Vincent Pastore the actor who played on The Sopranos which co-stars Street Band guitarist Steven Van Zandt came out and announced the band for the first of two encores But the bond Springsteen has learned to nurture and master most is his bond with his audience In the the singer became too eager to please in the needing to assert his artistry again he alienated himself from many fans But now Springsteen knows how to demand the silent appreciation that songs about death and loss require and to give the moments of pure abandon the crowd needs Springsteen played his most problematic yet greatest hit Bom in the USA the way he recorded it as an anthemic rocker not as an anguished acoustic lament as he has played it for years But first he called it a for near the end of an evening full of songs about love and hope it seemed as if the audience understood The only one not in a cooperative spirit was someone at AmericanAirlines Arena itself Earlier in the show a PA announcement that had been running beforehand suddenly began playing in the middle of a song The annoying announcement repeated itself through almost two whole tunes while The Boss gamely played on It was an embarrassing amateur way to treat a guest who was giving a particularly special show Evelyn McDonnell is the pop music critic HIR SELECTED SUNDAY NOV 24 CASH 3 0-6-4 PLAY 4 3-4-6-3 SELECTED
