Bruce Springsteen helps a fan skip school for his concert
Bruce Springsteen has helped a fan skip school to attend his concert.
While performing in San Francisco on his world tour, The Boss paused his performance to sign an absentee note for a fan who had missed class to attend the show.
The fan, who was at the front of the barricade, held up a sign that read: "Skipping school. Sign my note?"
Another concertgoer then captured the moment the 74-year-old rocker signed the note to a round of applause and cheers from his band and the crowd.
"That is so awesome. Put tears in my eyes. A true hero," someone wrote in the comments on the Facebook video.
"This is the best excuse note a teacher is ever going to see!!" another added.
"So cool, Bruce is one of the true talent and a great man of many excuses," a third wrote.
The adorable fan interaction comes just weeks after Springsteen returned to the stage for the first time in months after undergoing a lengthy health battle.
Springsteen was forced to postpone his 2023 tour with the E Street Band after taking time off to recover from a peptic ulcer disease.
Taking to the stage in Phoenix, Arizona, in the first show of the tour, he told the crowd mid-show, "Phoenix, first I want to apologise if there was any discomfort because we had to move the show last time...I hope we didn't inconvenience you too much."
