How rock ’n’ roll shook East Berlin’s core — and the wall
In a new interview, Bruce Springsteen laughs about President Trump invoking his name in a rally speech and says, ‘We’re living in a frightening time.’
Manager Jon Landau said there were tears in Springsteen’s eyes as he and his bandmates left the stage. And the feeling was mutual. “But Springsteen’s concert and others along with all the other cultural influences coming into East Germany from the West in the late 1980s that were designed to show that ... the country was open to the world outside actually only created an even greater yearning among East Germans for more freedoms,” he said.
It would take 11 more months for an initial opening of the Iron Curtain from Hungary to Austria. And then, the Berlin Wall collapsed.
