NEW ORLEANS — Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band returned to the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival on Saturday, giving thousands of fans the show they hoped for, but some left wanting more. He kicked off his three-hour set with "High Hopes," the title track of his latest album, before launching into some of his more popular songs including "Hungry Heart," 'Mary Don't You Weep," 'Wrecking Ball," 'Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out," 'Pay Me My Money Down," and a cover of the folk song "Jesse James." He also got a little help from his wife, Patti Scialfa, for "When The Saints Go Marching In." The music was upbeat, energetic and passionate but Jazz Fest veteran Alison Michel noted that he didn't play "Born in the U.S.A" and "Glory Days." "I wanted to hear more of his older stuff. I love his older songs," she said. He pulled a fan from the crowd to dance with him on stage for "Dancing in the Dark." Saturday's appearance marked Springsteen's third at the festival, which ends its two-weekend run Sunday. — AP
