Bruce Springsteen was awarded a special Tony award in honor of his widely acclaimed, sold-out show, Springsteen on Broadway at the 72nd annual Tony Awards at Radio City Music Hall on Sunday. The award was presented by a long-time close friend of Springsteen and a legend himself, Billy Joel. Springsteen also delivered a memorable performance of his 1984 hit My Hometown, interspersed with a moving monologue about growing up “surrounded by God and all my relatives,” essentially a spoken-word adaptation of the one-man show for which he received the award that night. The Boss’ performance was prefaced by an introduction from actor Robert DeNiro. “Do you have any idea how hard it is to get tickets for Bruce Springsteen’s show on Broadway?” DeNiro commented.
