What Bruce Springsteen is an essential reference for The Ludwig Band it’s something that anyone who has listened to the Empordanese’s last album can guess at the first listen. In fact, in this one Thanks for coming (The Indian Runners / Ceràmiques Guzmán, 2023) published last October 20, stands out contraband, a whole declaration of love from the Espolla group for the Boss and his music.
The fact is that the promoter Doctor Music confirmed just a few days ago that Springsteen will return to the city of Barcelona in June next year, after giving two brilliant recitals last April, which were attended by personalities such as the marriage formed by Barack i Michelle Obama or the filmmaker Steven Spielberg. The veteran American rocker has this week added a second date (June 22) at the Olympic Stadium in the Catalan capital, after tickets were sold out for the first of them, scheduled for June 20.
Before this new visit to Catalonia from the author of hits like Born to run o Born in the U.S.A. among many others, the music journalist Blai Marsé posted an entry on his X Network (formerly Twitter) profile in which proposed a collection of signatures to get The Ludwig Band to act as opening act for the Boss. “Let’s start a petition for @LaLudwigBand to be the opening act? Come on @DoctorMusicTuit make it happen!” wrote the journalist of Catalunya Ràdio and iCatfm.

Apparently, the same group decided to get in touch with Doctor Music in order to propose the people from Emporda as openers. Unfortunately, however, the answer was no. “I hope you are very well and thank you for contacting us. As you say, Bruce Springsteen does not have opening acts in his concerts and next year will be no exception. For this reason, unfortunately, we will not be able to take your request into account. Congratulations on the new album and good luck with your project. Regards and thanks again.”
the group the answer has been taken with humor of the promoter, paraphrasing the famous expression uttered in 2017 by the ex-major of the Mossos d’Esquadra Josep Lluís Trapero. His followers have also taken it with humor. “Free bowling at Poble Espanyol a couple of hours before kick-off? Rollo Fan Zone for the Champions League final” commented user Jordi Sancho. For his part, the promoter of the initiative, Blai Marsé, turned it upside down: “Maybe it’s easier to propose that Bruce be your opening act!” he wrote
