He still believes in a "promised land"

Bruce Springsteen has undertaken a one-man acoustic mini-tour on behalf of presidential candidate Barack Obama. Here he stops in Columbus, Ohio where he is introduced by former astronaut and former senator John Glen, says a few words and sings a few more.

It all culminates a week from Thursday when The Boss joins Billy Joel for an Obama rally at the Hammerstein Ballroom. The joint concert, the first time the two have ever performed together, will be held the day after the final Obama-John McCain debate which will take place just a few miles away at Hofstra University, in Hempstead, N.Y. Tickets for this show start art $500 and run as high as $10,000. However, I've heard all the tickets have been sold, although some are now being offered for $250,000. Yikes.
