Bruce Springsteen visits Shane MacGowan — and Charlie Bird could be next to meet The Boss

'What an amazing honour and a beautiful experience to get a visit from The Boss'

Meeting The Boss is one of Charlie Bird's bucket-list items.

‘The Boss’ Bruce Springsteen paid a special visit to legendary Irish singer-songwriter Shane MacGowan ahead of the first of three E Street Band's Dublin gigs.

Springsteen and the E Street Band are set to kick off their sold-out concerts on Friday at the RDS in Dublin.
