The Grammy Museum’s new exhibit Bruce Springsteen Live is an essential ticket for fans of Springsteen and popular music in general.
or rock, in general, will surely enjoy this house of worship. The exhibit runs through April 2, 2023, which provides plenty of time to come and gaze upon all the holy relics on display at the Grammy Museum.
A collection of hotel keys are among the various items from the 1980’s on display at the new exhibit, Bruce Springsteen Live! at the Grammy Museum in downtown Los Angeles, on October 14, 2022. The exhibit runs through April 2023. Concert tickets, backstage passes and other buttons on display at the new exhibit, Bruce Springsteen Live! at the Grammy Museum in downtown Los Angeles, on October 14, 2022. The exhibit runs through April 2023.
Bruce Springsteen’s Fender Telecaster guitar with an Esquire neck, that he played from 1972 until 2005, at the new exhibit, Bruce Springsteen Live! at the Grammy Museum in downtown Los Angeles, on October 14, 2022. The exhibit runs through April 2023. A scrapbook from the 1970’s created by Adele Springsteen, Bruce’s mom, on display at the new exhibit, Bruce Springsteen Live! at the Grammy Museum in downtown Los Angeles, on October 14, 2022. The exhibit runs through April 2023.
Or the truly impressive collection of hotel and motel room keys, chained together in a large ball, that Springsteen emptied out of his pockets, luggage, and guitar cases on returning home from the road over the years. “Bruce Springsteen – Live!” it declares in a foreshadowing of the name of this exhibit almost 50 years later. A benefit for an organization called All You Can Eat, tickets were $2. “Air conditioned,” the poster notes of Records Hall on campus. “Bring a pillow.”
Then there’s a particularly lovely one of Springsteen with wife and E Street Band member Patti Scialfa. They’re alone on stage, shot from behind, looking out at the still-empty Sports Arena hours before it would be filled with fans for one of Springsteen’s March 2016 farewell shows to one of his favorite places to play in Los Angeles.
“I kept saying it’s important for it to be at Monmouth University,” she says. “It’s where Bruce started his earliest career. It’s the second college he ever played at. He did nine concerts there. It’s five minutes from Asbury Park. It needs to be here. “He called me and said, ‘What if we go to Bruce and see if he would bring his collection to us?’” Chapman says. “Bob said, ‘You know, I think it’s destined for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It shouldn’t be in Cleveland. It should be in New Jersey.’
One of the listening kiosks includes a list of 10 of the most historic Springsteen shows, an assignment Chapman says was almost impossible for her to do. Her first list of the biggest, best, most important shows included 50. Asked to cut it down she came back with 30, only to be told, no, it needs to be 10, just 10.
For over three hours, Springsteen danced on tables and climbed to the balcony as he performed, tossing in the live debuts of such songs as “Point Blank” and his cover of “Heartbreak Hotel” in the course of the evening.
