Bruce plays three-song, two-joke set at NY Comedy Festival last night
The day after the first Tuesday in November, and Bruce Springsteen was back on stage -- not for another political event, but to honor our soldiers and veterans. Springsteen returned for the second annual Stand Up for Heroes benefit, raising money for the Bob Woodruff Family Fund to help wounded soldiers. At the beginning of the night, Bob and Lee Woodruff stated that this was not intended as a celebration of the results of the election, and that set the tone for the evening. Without a word about the election, Springsteen performed three songs solo acoustic, joined by Patti Scialfa on vocals for "Thunder Road," and tipped his hat to the veterans in the audience at both the beginning and end of his set.

Acknowledging that he was the only musician on the bill for this New York Comedy Festival event, he got into the spirit of the show with a couple of jokes between songs. He said that the only jokes he knows are the ones the band tells him on the bus. And the two that he told -- variations on this one and this one -- were old enough that he probably heard them in the days when the band actually travelled by bus.

After his set, they once again auctioned off one of his motorcycles, a 1994 Harley Davidson Dyna Wide Glide, which Springsteen rode onto the stage with the engine running. After he threw in his leather jacket, it went for $70,000. The guitar Bruce played during his set was auctioned as well, bringing in an additional $50,000 for the cause.
