ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) -

At a concert in upstate New York, Bruce Springsteen thanked all of the police officers, firefighters and government officials for their storm relief efforts.

Springsteen made the comments Wednesday night at the Rochester Blue Cross Arena as he dedicated "My City of Ruins" to his hometown of Asbury Park, N.J.

The Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band concert was originally scheduled for Tuesday night, but was postponed because of flight cancellations for the band and ticket holders.
