Bruce Springsteen sings “Ghostbusters” at Halloween concert
Bruce Springsteen opened his concert yesterday, Halloween day, at the Center Bell in Montreal, Canada, performing for his first time in concert a song perfectly suited to the occasion: “Ghostbusters”.
For those few who don’t know the song by Ray Parker Jr. is the theme of the highly successful 1984 film of the same name directed by Ivan Reitman and played, among others, by Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd And Harold Ramis. The song was received by the audience with pleasure and surprise, while the Boss shouted: “I’m not afraid of ghosts!”.
The rest of the concert lineup did not provide any particular surprises and is in line with what was proposed in the ‘World Tour 2004’ of the New Jersey musician accompanied by his faithful And Street Band.
