On October 22, backstage at the United Center in Chicago, Springsteen talked with Tom Brokaw for a History Channel special. (During that night's show, Bruce dedicated "Devil's Arcade" to the veteran newsman.)
Tonight, footage from that interview debuts in 1968 with Tom Brokaw. "Explore the significance of that turbulent year and the way it continues to affect the American landscape. Tom Brokaw offers his perspective on the era and shares the rich personal odysseys of some of the people who lived through that chaotic time, along with the stories of younger people now experiencing its aftershocks." Springsteen himself was of draft age in '68, turning 19 that September, and playing with his bands The Castiles and Earth.
The two-hour program premieres tonight at 9:00 p.m. Eastern, repeating at 1:00 a.m., and again on Wednesday at 9 p.m., Thursday at 1 a.m., and Saturday, 12/15 at 6 p.m.
