Good old Bruce. You keep bein’ relevant now, ya hear?

[EyeGuy]

So you release 3 very good albums, over 30 years ago, and now we have to listen to your utter Communist ignorance for the rest of your clueless, pampered life?

Not even close to a fair trade.

[pieceofthepuzzle]

I know that a lot of people like him, but listening to his pseudo working class vapid ‘rock’ makes me want to vomit when I hear it out in public. It’s just my opinion, but I think I might rather gargle liquid Drano than listen to that crap.

I wasted 3 bucks to see this commie tool back in the early 1970s. Hey “Boss” take a nice stroll down Federal Street in Camden,NJ some summer night. You will have an attitude adjustment.

Ahhhhhhhhh the tolerant liberal left, I thought their motto was “Innocent til proven guilty” but hey, its an election year and they need the votes, so its “Guilty til proven innocent”

And how does one interpret the fact that the Philadelphia audience — and, reportedly, other cities’ audiences on this tour — cheer when Springsteen gets to the “Jack of All Trades” line, “If I had me a gun I’d find the bastards and shoot ‘em on sight”? I’ll tell you how: People really like to hear otherwise mannerly rock stars talk tough, especially after many of those people have had a few beers. Now, as to whether a black rock star could utter those words and not get certain elements of the political spectrum calling for such a singer’s arrest to incite murder? That’s a different question, one that you can bet Springsteen thought about in writing that line.

The mind boggles.

This guy wonders aloud if a black singer could ever get away with singing a song about shooting somebody.

If only some black singer would have the guts to do such a thing a find out!

[InvisibleChurch]

BS always looks likes he’s taking a poop when he sings.

[fatnotlazy]

I still love his music, but I wish he and his colleagues in entertainment would just entertain.

BTW, rest in peace, Clarence Clemmons. Truly great sax player.

[Smokin' Joe]

I guess everyone has figured out a way to milk this...

Yep, they're going to gin this right into a full scale revolution, complete with marching songs...while they march to the bank.

There's a new generation of fools to part with their money out there...

[skinkinthegrass]

Bruce Springsteen = Yoko Ono
...that's about right. :-D

[Snickering Hound]

Then he started rambling about how those neighbor kids need to stay outa his lawn...

[bigbob]

Never liked his music, never liked him.

Just don’t get the Jersey thing I guess...

Artists might do better if they didn’t go out of their way to piss off half or more of their potential audience.

[FryingPan101]

Uh, Such a partisan, high-drama guy. He and Spike Lee don’t appreciate what God and America have given them the opportunity to become.

[Lx]

Springsteen, I remember when he got popular and I couldn’t understand it. I still don’t, lame lyrics, guitar playing and his voice, WTH? I think I like him less than Phil Collins and that’s saying something.

I’m glad he’s so true to his word that he donates all his money to the UN and the Feds and doesn’t surround himself with armed guards.

His and Johnny Cougar’s fake down home workingman B.S. makes me dislike them even more. At least Phil Collins (as far as I know) isn’t a self hating uber liberal but I could be wrong.

[blueunicorn6]

I’ll bet he’s putting slicks on his scooterchair.

[Doc Savage]

What? He plays from his wheelchair? This guy is so has been he hasn’t even been!

[The KG9 Kid]

I've never understood the fascination with Springsteen. I guess he's got music that's loved by Pennsylvania/New Jersey/New York steel town Vinnies.

'Regional Rock' sucks. Namely, Rock music ballads where you have to be born and raised in a certain part of the USA to identify with: Like the stuff put out by Springsteen and whatever John Lemon Cougarcamp is telling people to call him these days.

I just don't have patience for Springsteen's Rust Belt steel foundry warbling, or John MellonCougarLip's lousy 'blood on the scarecrow/blood on the plow/blood on the haystack/blood on the International Harvester rotary soil cultivation combine' lyrics.

So, Springsteen has been desperately searching for a new schtick. So I guess he found one down in Florida. Maybe he'll add Latin timbales drums to the E-Street Band.

Squirrel Jail

[Mr. K]

Bruce, if he didn't have a gun we might have one dead community watch captain rather then one dead blossoming thug

Which would you prefer?

[Niteranger68]

A sorry-ass entertainer and even worse human being.
