If you have a culturally significant sporting occasion that calls for a little patriotic gravity and unquestioned musical credibility, the go-to guy of the moment is Bruce Springsteen. The Boss is rumored to be the latest addition to the NFL’s rock archeology program at the Super Bowl, and now the those lovable Dark Jedi of Major League Baseball, the Steinbrenners, are actively pursuing him to play two final shows at Yankee Stadium. George and Hank want the concerts to rival the ones that Billy Joel played at Shea Stadium last summer, which featured lots of sentiment, guest stars, and revenue. The main hold-up is that the Steinbrenners want the concerts to take place in November, when the weather is a bit chilly. Hopefully both parties will realize that the stadium will probably be free all though October this year. [Idolator]
