Bruce Springsteen Was Born to Set This Record

Tuesday's MetLife marathon stats: a 25-song set list; a nine-song encore; one ageless 66-year-old.

Last night at MetLife Stadium, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band performed for four hours and three minutes. It’s The Boss’ longest-ever U.S. live performance, second only to a show in Helsinki, Finland, and as such is garnering a ton of entertainment news headlines today. A smaller focus of coverage is the presence at the show of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.

The River Tour wraps up Sept. 14 at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, where somewhat hilariously, local officials have granted The Boss an extra 15 minutes past the usual 11:15 p.m.
