found out there Is Some people dedicated to Bruce Springsteen.
The 75-year-old singer and his wife Patti Scialfa recently shared how their dynamic changed from performing on stage with the E Street Band to living at home with each other.
“I think the hardest part about being married to Bruce Springsteen and being in a band with him is that you can go home and he can still think he’s in charge, right?” Howard Stern asked Scialfa, 71, on Wednesday’s episode howard stern show,
“How can one manage this? Was there a real discussion where you had to figure out, specifically for your children, how Bruce should behave at home,” he continued.
“Not really. I always tried not to be the wife on stage. I really did,” Scilfa replied. “I just didn’t want to bring it on stage. And Bruce always says this great saying, and he says , ‘It’s like on stage, you know, but as soon as I take my foot off the stage…'”
Springsteen shouted: “It’s over, baby.”
“It’s over,” he quipped.
“I’m only the boss for three hours,” the musician admitted to Stern, 70. “Then I gladly give up the title.”
Opening up about her family life with kids Evan, 34, Jessica, 32, and Samuel, 30, Scialfa shared, “You come into our house, especially when the kids were growing up, you know. It doesn’t matter what anyone has done while living there.”
Scialfa, who has been a member of the E Street Band since 1984, said, “There was nothing in the house to indicate that there was any famous person in the house or that it was a forced situation. There are no pictures that are work related or anything.
In fact, their kids didn’t even know they had famous parents until they got a little older.
“Our kids didn’t know what we did until one day,” Springsteen recalled. “I think Evan came home by the first grade, no, much later, even by the second or third grade, going, ‘Hey Dad, what’s the ‘Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out’?'” from the 1975 album “Born To Run”, referencing his father’s famous hit.
Stern interjected, “I hope you tell him you don’t even know. I love a good love story, Patty. And when you’re falling in love with the boss, and he’s really the boss, you know what I mean? Like, he’s your boss.
But the couple, who tied the knot in 1991, doesn’t see it that way.
“I have to tell you I never think about it,” Scialfa confessed, to which her husband replied, “I don’t think so.”
It’s safe to say the pair are a team in every sense of the word — they delve into some depth in Springsteen’s new documentary “Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band,” which premiered at the Toronto Film Festival earlier this month .
In the doc, Scialfa is revealed to be suffering from multiple myeloma, a form of blood cancer. The guitarist explained that his health issues are the reason he took a step back from the E Street Band.
“Touring has become a challenge for me,” Scialfa shared in the doc. “It affects my immune system so I just have to be careful what I choose to do and where I go.”
She added, “Once in a while, I come to a show or two and I can sing a few songs on stage, and it’s a pleasant experience.” “This is the new normal for me right now, and I’m okay with that.”
Scialfa was diagnosed during the “Springsteen on Broadway” concert residency.
Springsteen recently gave an update on his second part in the trailer for an upcoming ABC News special, “Bruce Springsteen: Backstage and Backstage,
The rock legend simply said, “She’s doing good.”
