Bruce Springsteen performed at Russert funeral.
He did Thunder Road. Seems like Russert was a big Springsteen fan. Nice moment.

I think it was a video shown at the service, but it was a special performance by Bruce, dedicated to Russert.

3. I'm glad that the tranquiler dart they put in Elton John held.
He was twenty paces from the ceremony before he collapsed. The band was all ready for his rewrite "Timmy and the Bills" They say the dosage was set a water buffalo.

5. I read that "Thunder Road" was Russert's favorite song.
I love it, too.

7. When Russert was in college...
at John Carroll in the early 70's, he booked Springsteen to perform there.
