Like the "Boss" (Bruce Springsteen), Southside Johnny aka John Lyon is from New Jersey and, of course, the paths of the two crossed many times. The band gave their first German concert in 1977 in Hamburg and on March 26, 1992, Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes gave a second concert for Rockpalast in Cologne's Live Music Hall, where Little Steven joined them on stage for four songs.
