Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen was born September 23, 1949, and is an American rock singer, songwriter, and guitarist.

He’s Nicknamed "The Boss", because he has released 21 studio albums during a career spanning six decades, most of which feature his backing band, the E Street Band. Springsteen is an originator of heartland rock, a genre combining mainstream rock music with poetic and socially conscious lyrics that tell a narrative about working-class American life. He is known for his descriptive lyrics and energetic concerts, with performances that can last more than four hours.

Early on this year, The Boss took a  tumble on stage while performing “Ghosts” in Amsterdam, but he quickly recovered as this video showed. He got to his feet and joked “Goodnight, everybody!”
