Bruce Springsteen early '80s. This was my first time seeing The Boss.
My friend Dave Warren took this great shot. We were still in college.
A few years later, I'd see Springsteen at the Providence Civic Center and
got to meet him after the show. Such a gentleman.


With Greg Ham from Men At Work after their concert at Metro on
Landsdowne St. in Boston (circa 1983). The guy on the left is Martin
Plaza, lead singer from the Australian band Mental As Anything.
Greg Ham died in 2012. RIP.
