(CBS) - Bruce Springsteen may call himself "The Boss," but it appears even he isn't in control of when his concerts end. Springsteen and his "E Street Band" were playing a cover of "Twist and Shout" with former Beatle Paul McCartney when the audio suddenly went out.  The Westminster City Council later tweeted that organizers had ended the show because it ran over curfew. Springsteen is known for his marathon concert sets. A show last month in Spain went on for nearly four hours.
