This episode is a conversation with a 30-something Bruce fan who came to Bruce Springsteen's career only recently. We talk with Brandon Fitzsimmons, who started his journey with Springsteen during the downtime he had during COVID in 2020. He did a deep dive into Springsteen's catalog, and most interesting to me, just saw Bruce for the first time at a show in Pittsburgh in the fall of 2024, driving 6 hours to see a 74-year old Springsteen and the E St. Band. What was that like? We talk about it, and how Brandon started - and went all in - in his Boss journey.
Brandon is a big music fan, albeit one who has deeper fandom for most things 90, and post-2000's. He's a great person to talk to because he has both an open mind about music styles and also loves rock and roll.
