Bruce Springsteen is on the road to promote his brand new documentary film Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band , taking viewers inside the formation of their iconic live shows.
Per the band’s official website , the feature is described as offering “the most in-depth look ever at the creation of the band’s legendary live performances, including footage of rehearsals, backstage moments, rare archival clips and personal reflections from Springsteen himself.”
The singer, affectionately known as “The Boss,” made an appearance at the Los Angeles premiere of the documentary at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures on Monday, October 21 .
Bruce was joined by longtime bandmate Steven Van Zandt, filmmaker Thom Zimny, and producer Jon Landau, plus other stars like Brandi Carlile, Catherine O’Hara, Danny DeVito and more.
However, he wasn’t joined by his wife and E Street Band bandmate Patti Scialfa, nor his and Patti’s three children, Evan, Samuel and Jessica .
The family-of-five is quite close, although Evan (a music content editor) and Samuel (a firefighter) maintain more of a life away from the spotlight. Jessica is a professional equestrian who continues to show jump professionally, while Patti is likely at home, healing from multiple myeloma , a form of blood cancer.
