The Boss pays tribute to the Big Man in N.J.

Bruce Springsteen is obviously a home-state hero in New Jersey so when he played the Izod Center in the Meadowlands this week you had to know the crowds would be especially enthusiastic. Bruce has been saving Tenth Avenue Freeze-out for the final song of the evening so far on every stop of the Wrecking Ball tour. But on Wednesday night, he actually sang it from a mini-stage located out in the audience and when he came to the line "when the Big Man joined the band," he not only stopped for a moment of reflection for his dear departed friend, but, for the first time on the tour, pictures of Clarence were shown on the auditorium’s big screen. The audience’s reaction is electric, as you can see here.
