    Clarence Clemons was a founding member of Bruce's band, "The E Street Band", playing sax with them from 1972 through his death in 2011. Clarence's nephew Jake Clemons joined in 2012, and still plays sax with Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band.

    The group is his called The E Street Band. They’ve been together over 50 years. Clarence was on sax and one of Bruce’s closest friends. Sad he passed young. Bruce took it hard. The girl on stage is from Friends, played Monica Geller.

    Clarence Clemons(the sax player) was part of the band since forever. He was one of Bruce’s greatest friends, when Clarence died, Bruce all but quit his band. Now, Clarence’s son plays sax for the band. And the girl dancing on stage is Courtney Cox, from Friends.

    The saxophone player is Clarence Clemons, the big man. The band is the E street band and played with Bruce for years, and still does. Clarence passed away some years ago. I got to see him live, in Mill Valley in Northern California, his mother lived in the area, and sometimes he would show up at popular music joint Sweetwater, what a treat.

  • @sherribrock2726

    The dance called the "Carlton" by Alfonso on the Fresh Prince of Bel Air was partly taken from the dance with Courtney Cox and Bruce in this video. You can definitely see the similarities. Such a great tune. RIP Clarence Clemons - Amazing Sax player!! Clarence has been with the E Street Band from the beginning. Bruce and the E Street Band have been together for a long time. Bruce gets a lot of the credit (and so deserved) but, he will be the first to tell you his band is an integral part of his music.

    For some reason I've always loved songs about songwriters' struggles to get their inspiration back. There's an Australian singer Missy Higgins and her song "Set Me On Fire" is also about that. Her lyrics are great, one standout from it is "And the bones that once moved my fingers over keys are protesting in fist on my knees". Such a good way to describe the songwriting block!

Then she was cast in Friends and the rest is History.

    I’m more of a casual fan of Bruce, but wouldn’t consider him one of my favorites. With that said, his concert (along with Stevie Wonder’s) were probably the best I’ve ever seen live, and I’ve seen a lot of legendary artists live. His band is incredible whether you know the songs or not.

    "Directed by Brian De Palma, the video was shot at the Saint Paul Civic Center in Saint Paul, Minnesota, on June 28 and 29, 1984. The first night was a pure video shoot, the second was on the opening date of the Born in the U.S.A. Tour. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band performed the song twice during that show to allow De Palma to get all the footage he needed. The video is a straight performance video, with Springsteen not playing a guitar, allowing him to invite a young woman from the audience, performed by Courteney Cox, to dance along with him on the stage at the end."

Unless you have PROOF, not conspiracy theories, I advise you not to just believe whatever you want, or as the Bible says, "Believing false prophets who tell them what their itching ears want to hear." As a Christ follower, I follow TRUTH because Jesus is Truth, and people who claim to be Christians are not to follow what the Bible calls conspiracies, gossip, and slander, which by the way, God puts in the category of heinous sin as the pedophiles, liars, and murderers you rightly condemn. Why don't you search for the truth, and find the real ones.
