From an intimate look into Springsteen\u2019s creative process to shedding light on how he became \u2013 and remains \u2013 one of the greatest live performers in rock and roll history, the GRAMMY Museum\u2019s <em>Bruce Springsteen Live!<\/em> explores the evolution of Springsteen through the decades and grants exclusive backstage access to Springsteen and the E Street Band\u2019s legendary performances. The Museum is also asking all Springsteen fans to be part of the exhibit by submitting a video sharing their live concert experiences from Springsteen shows over the years. Excerpts of this will be part of a new exhibit film and can be seen throughout the gallery. On September 23rd, Springsteen\u2019s 73rd birthday, the museum is inviting fans to stop by and share their stories in-person and on-camera and wish Bruce a Happy Birthday. In partnership with The Bruce Springsteen Archives and Center for American Music at Monmouth University, the traveling exhibit launches at the Museum\u2019s downtown Los Angeles location on Oct. 15 and will run through April 2, 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe GRAMMY Museum is excited to bring <em>Bruce Springsteen Live!<\/em> to Los Angeles,\u201d said Jasen Emmons, Chief Curator and Vice President of Curatorial Affairs at the GRAMMY Museum. \u201cWe\u2019re also thrilled to offer a special, expanded exhibit with the help of Springsteen fans for a one-of-a-kind immersive experience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.samdb.co.za\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Bruce-Springsteen-and-the-E-Street-Band-clothing-and-ephemera_1980s.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.samdb.co.za\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Bruce-Springsteen-and-the-E-Street-Band-clothing-and-ephemera_1980s.jpg?resize=500%2C333&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16903\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.samdb.co.za\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Bruce-Springsteen-and-the-E-Street-Band-clothing-and-ephemera_1980s.jpg?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.samdb.co.za\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Bruce-Springsteen-and-the-E-Street-Band-clothing-and-ephemera_1980s.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band clothing and ephemera (1980s)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>From Springsteen\u2019s earliest days on the Jersey Shore, performing in dingy clubs and boardwalk bars, to performing sold-out superstar stadium shows, his aim was to always exceed the loftiest expectations. <em>Bruce Springsteen Live!
