Meet Michael Waldman, who saw Bruce Springsteen around 50 times in 1974 and 1975. Yes, you read that right. Michael joins Jeff in the cafe to discuss his early memories of seeing Bruce in concert over 50 years ago and how a chance listening to '4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)' one day in college changed his life forever.

Our intrepid trio get together over coffee and treats from the cafe to discuss the mega month that was October. The 'Electric Nebraska' box set (or whatever you want to call it) and the biopic 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere' come under the scrutiny of Mikipedia, Dan and Jeff.

Rosie keeps our hosts well watered during their deep(ish) dive into the two releases.

Sebla is a massive fan of Bruce Springsteen and lived in Istanbul until something changed her life. She has seen Bruce 97 times in concert and now lives in the USA with her husband Steve.

Sebla pops into the cafe to share her special story with us.

When Warren Zanes popped into the cafe two years ago, little did we know that a brilliant film would be released based on the book. The book and subsequent film may have well inspired Bruce to dig out all the Nebraska stuff that all fans have been shouting out for - who knows!

Relive Warren's brilliant chat with Jeff and Dan from 2023 to coincide with the Deliver Me From Nowhere film and the Nebraska box set ...

Today, we welcome Robert Lawson into the cafe to talk about his labour of love: his book about the legend, Stevie Van Zandt.

Robert has been a Stevie fan for over 40 years and has written a very comprehensive record of his career including interviews with the man himself and numerous Disciples of Soul.

To celebrate our first Stevie podcast, the cafe team pull out all the stops by creating a special menu which Jeff, Mike and Robert tuck into in between stories.

'Solidarity Forever: The Art and Soul of Stevie Van Zandt' is out now and available to purchase.

Jeff asks the questions. Dan and Mike battle it out for the special prize of a free ticket to the Gig Time Machine. Pit your wits against the boys as they go head to head with each other in a special Born to Run anniversary quiz.

Sloppy Sue and Weak Knees are back from their holiday and join Rosie in the cafe to serve up the coffee and ice creams! Feel free to join in the fun and let us know how you get on!

It's not very often that Bruce's biographer, Peter Ames Carlin, pops into the cafe - but that's what happened! Peter has collaborated with various E Streeters and Bruce to tell the story of the making of Born to Run. His new book Tonight in Jungleland coincides with the 50th anniversary of this classic and iconic album and goes into great detail of the immense pressure Bruce was under to get his third album just right.

Sloppy Sue and Weak Knees are on holiday, so things are expected to run smoothly in the cafe today! For more information visit www.peteramescarlin.com or search Peter Ames Carlin on Instagram and Facebook.

7 brand new albums in one day from The Boss. Where do we start? It's impossible for us to review these in depth in a single episode so with the help of Jeff, Dan and a special guest Ken Lesnik, one of our friends from New Jersey - we take a shallow dive across the box set. We also choose our stand-out track on each album.

Rosalita is on duty today to ensure everything runs very smoothly on the hottest day of the year!

Join Jeff and Dan in the cafe to get their perspectives on the epic four days in Liverpool. With contributions from absent Geezers Mike and Jim, we talk about the two nights at Anfield, the guest appearance from Macca, and the Max Weinberg Pension Top Up events too!

Rosalita has the day off, but Sloppy Sue serves up a couple of poorly presented dollops of Chirmside Chicken.

There is so much to say about the Bruce Springsteen shows in Liverpool, so we have decided to do two separate podcasts to discuss what happened. In this episode we talk to three musicians to get their own perspective on the epic concerts at Anfield. Make yourself a drink, sit comfortably and hear what Robert Vincent, Ian Prowse and Hywel (rhymes with towel) Roberts thought of their own experiences.
