Bruce Springsteen and Jon Stewart will return once again at the annual Stand Up for Heroes musical and comedy charity event on November 7 at Lincoln Center in New York City.
Along with Stewart and Springsteen, 2022 Stand Up for Heroes show will feature comedians Hasan Minhaj, Jeff Ross, and Iliza Schellinger.
Folk costume luminaries and Broadway actress Amber Iman are also set to perform. Further additions to the lineup will be announced soon.
Tickets for the 16th Annual Stand Up for Heroes – which will also mark the start of the 2022 New York Comedy Festival – are on sale now.
The show is presented and raised by the Bob Woodruff Foundation, a non-profit that helps military veterans and their families.
The organization was started in 2007 after ABC News correspondent Bob Woodruff suffered a traumatic brain injury while covering the Iraq War.
Veteran causes have been of particular importance to both Springsteen and Stewart over the years, and they have become suitable fixtures in Stand Up for Heroes.
Springsteen also uses the show to give a glimpse of an extraordinarily rare side of himself—one who absolutely loves to tell dirty jokes.
While he’s recycled some of the material over the years, Springsteen busted a truly outrageous new one last year that included a Nevada cathouse, too much flatulence, and other bodily fluids.
You can read the full text of the joke in our recap, though you’ll have to imagine for yourself the words coming out of Springsteen’s mouth.
