The older Bruce Springsteen gets, the more fun he seems to be having. And while his catalog speaks for itself, he’s been peppering in plenty of covers from his contemporaries recently. You’ve already seen him take on “Highway to Hell” with AC/DC’s Brian Johnson while playing Australia, and he’s also covered fellow Australians INXS recently while down under as well. Back in the states and playing Dallas for the NCAA March Madness Music Fest, he and the E Street Band pulled off a cover of Van Halen’s “Jump.” “This has something to do with basketball, am I right?,” he asked the crowd while dribbling a basketball. He then had a mock face-off with his guitarist before kicking into the 1983 anthem. You also get to see Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello play with him again.

And if you haven’t had enough of classic rockers covering Van Halen, check out Pearl Jam covering “Eruption” and “Running With the Devil.”
