I liked “Nebraska” - I just saw the video clip of Springsteen nodding his stupid head while Barack Obama called his fans bigots and racists because I guess in Obama’s mind, Springsteen’s fans liked Clarence on stage but “if they saw him in a bar, they call him a nig**er, still” Springsteen just said -“yeah, yep, that’s right”

Springsteen doesn’t have any fans that aren’t middle aged white men and women” so anyone that buys his crap is a fool.

His blue-collar schtick is just that - a marketing gimmick. He’s just as elitist as John Kerry.

Springsteen admits as much in his stage play. Of course the paying audience interprets this as a 'joke' or 'modesty'. But he does kinda let the cat out of the bag.

Isn’t John Kerry a commie?

Is that the 10 million dollar horse daddy bought from the Olympic champion rider?

That horse knew the course by rote and frankly didn’t even need her on his back.

You can’t take your music catalog with you.

Nor the cash you get from selling it.

He may give some to charity, but the government will probably take one-third.

He peaked at Born to Run and Darkness on the Edge of Town, the latter being the better of the two albums...after that, it’s all garbage.

Wish I had $400 million of disposable cash….I'd talk him down to 400 then get rid of it all and forbid its airing. The world would be a happier place.

Musk could but it . . . and throw it away.

I’ll give him fitty dollars for “Dancin’ in the Dark” and “Born to Run.”

He’s 72 years old. Probably doesn’t have much time left. Better to sell his catalog now.

Exactly, if he doesn't have heirs that want to manage it then might as well cash out. You can't take it with you.

Yep, and not a great talent as compared to so many others. But he earned it and it's his to do as he pleases.

You can also throw in Journey and the song Piano Man.

That over-rated song came out when I was in college. I've always found it boring and to this day I don't think I have ever listened to the lyrics all the way to the end. I always get bored with it and zone out on it. And yet on TV shows some guy will start playing it on the piano and everybody in the bar sings along with it.

Same for Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline, UGH

“I seriously doubt most of those fans would call Clemons a racial slur when they met him in a bar”

If they saw him n a bar they’d probably just call him a ghost.

I had relatives of the same ethnic background (Dutch and Irish) live to be 96, 98 and 99 years old. That is a span of 22 to 27 years from Springsteen's age, 72, which is the new 62. Don't be ageist.

he let Obama insult Clarence Clemmons and Bruce said nothing and let him do it

WHAT??? That's disgusting. Clemons was a natural genius at his instrument. Springsteen would never have gotten off the ground without him.

Hope no one bites. Worst case, he is under pressure from Obama and the globalists to use his "equity" to fund their future campaigns.
