Critics and fans alike have been heard to observe that Springsteen doesn't give Nils as much spotlight as he deserves given how well he can play. On the current tour he's given Nils the assignment of flaming solo at the end of Because the Night, which Bruce typically plays. Based on what we saw in Hamilton earlier this week, and on this video, seems like it was a good idea. See what you think.

BTW, the Hamilton show was fantastic. The Stevie and Bruce duelling guitars at the end of Gypsy biker was very powerful, as was Bruce's stinging Tele playing in an extended version of Kitty's back.
We got to go to the E-Street Lounge and there met Little Steven, shook hands, etc., and no, didn't get pictures. Very cool though.
