I skeeve from Springsteen because he sold out long, long ago. When he started out, playing college auditoriums and clubs the size of my living room on the Jersey shore, I was one of his first fans. I went backstage to meet him. I called him on the phone when he was appearing on college radio stations. I loved his musicianship on the first two albums. He had great originality. Then came the "Born in the USA" era, he began to mimic all the loud, loud bands, the driving beat, and the amplifiers the size of sports cars stacked three high. I was taken so by surprise by that at the Tower Theater in Philly that I think my slight hearing loss happened at that concert. But I was still willing to give him an open mind until he dumped his wife and went off with his electric violinist. I really don't care that they have stayed together.

And all that was even before his ridiculous sell-out to the Social Democrat Union Labor Grievance Entitlement Party.

Ptui.

What really drives me nuts is when he sings in the faux-Woody Guthrie drawl.
