No one person’s ‘the Boss’ of the rules we all live by

BRUCE Springsteen plays Dublin this week, and, beforehand, there were dire warnings that what happened to him in London better not happen here.

In a gig at Hyde Park — which, typically, was a leg-testing three hours — ‘the Boss’ topped things off by introducing Paul McCartney on stage and launching into a number of Beatles songs.

But, after a rather jolly version of Twist and Shout, the twisting and shouting came to an abrupt end: the concert organisers turned off Springsteen’s microphone.
