Yesterday was the 2nd Annual American Music Honors at the Bruce Springsteen Archives & Center for American Music, and of course, The Boss had to sing a song for the crowd.
What song did he sing? He entertained the audience with John Mellencamp’s Small Town. And there was one person who was so entertained that he got up from the audience to sing with Bruce.
Who was that individual? It was Mellencamp himself. And the singer was there because he was being honored for his social activism, such as Farm Aid.
What an honor it must have been to hear them sing that duet in person. I hope we get to hear it again at Joe Biden’s second inauguration in January.
