Bruce Springsteen tripped and fell on stage during a recent show in Amsterdam, but was able to continue performing afterward.
The Boss is OK.
Bruce Springsteen laughed off an onstage fall over the weekend in Amsterdam. He tripped on a set of stairs and tumbled face-first, as seen in video recorded by a Saturday concertgoer. The “Born to Run” singer, with electric guitar in hand, was able to stretch out an arm to brace the fall.
The crowd groaned as Springsteen, 73, lay on his back for a few seconds. But once he wriggled to sit up with the help of two stagehands who brought him to his feet, he revealed a big smile. After taking a breath, he waved his hands and jokingly yelled into the microphone, “Goodnight everybody!”
As the rocker ran toward his E Street Band, the crowd at the Johan Cruijff Arena applauded. The band went on to perform one of its iconic marathon concerts.
