01 The rising [For August 1 broadcast]
02 Lonesome day [For August 2 broadcast]

Notes:
Taping for the Springsteen's two appearances on The Late Show with David Letterman (to be broadcast August 1 and August 2) took place back-to-back on the evening of August 1. Bruce and the E Street Band performed one song for each show; for the Friday show, Springsteen sat down with Letterman as a non-musical guest as well. It's a short chat, but there wasn't a single "in some fashion"! Hey, it's the little things that count.

Notes:
Introduced by James Gandolfini, Springsteen and the E Street Band opened this year's Video Music Awards with a live performance of "The Rising." Bruce's VMA opening was broadcast from the Rose Center for Earth and Space, the Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History. They began the evening's hour-and-15-minute performance with two takes of The Rising-- one to warm up, followed by one for the cameras--and that was in addition to running through the song several times at the afternoon soundcheck
