That was all the impetus we needed to get our butts to Zimbabwe as fast as we could. Hiring a 10-seater plane we flew from Joburg, landing in Harare. It was my first time in this beautiful country and I distinctly remember making our way from the airport to the stadium driving down a gorgeous jacaranda lined avenue with the sun, a huge orange ball, setting in the sky. It was oh so hot and the evening was filled with promise………”read the whole story and how The Boss welcomed the South Africans at his show here: http://www.upthecreek.co.za/down-to-the-river-a-bruce-springsteen-and-up-the-creek-festival-giveaway/ We’d like to invite you along for the ride and have put together a package that will make anyone smile this January, all the way down to the River.
