On July 30, 2002, Bruce Springsteen launched his new album called The Rising. The AP boardwalk was the place, and the beachfront, which usually was empty, became full of people.
This photograph was taken that morning when the Today show broadcast from the beach. You can see the bright television lights. Katie Couric was there holding a microphone standing in the surf. Danny DeVito was there also, schmoozing with the crowd.
wow- I poured over this photo for a clue…and was stumped! Though I enjoyed getting a close up view of those lifeguards (!!) , I am taking a wild guess. I see the American Flag and this was off Bruce’s Rising album, which had a lot of songs around 9/11…so I am guessing 2003 when it was released? See lights etc…were they filming a video?
