I remember when this happened quite a while back. This is not a recent event, so why post it now?
And, yes, I loathe Springsteen and have for years.
I bumped into this guy once...literally.
I was hoofing down the sidewalk going to my next service call with a handful of Dell parts not looking and i walked right into him in front of the Boston Four Seasons.
I instinctively said sorry then looked down and it was the boss!
He’s a lot shorter than i imagined.
He was gracious and said no problem man.
Not a fan though.
I knew people back in high school that would camp over night at ticket master to see this guy..
Great story.
Glory daze
Bahahahaha
NEXT on LIBTARDS! Fetterman Gets A Guitar
He landed on his butt?
is that on video
Brooks proved he was a a-hole way before he attacked the B light boycotters. He committed to perform at Trumps inauguration and cancelled when Trump actually won. He went on to discourage anyone else from performing which made it difficult to get anyone to replace him. Of course there he was leading the list at Traitor Joe’s.
I remember vividly the Tunnel of Love tour where it was clear the BoSs had lured Patty back to start boinking her again, literally days after marrying Julianne Phillips.
That's not a douchebag move, that's evil.
He inflicted pain on Phillips, and he flaunted it in public, so f--- him and everything that looks like him. Karma coming for him is worse than a faceplant. Cancer is a bitch, Broooce and it's all over your genetic background.
Springsteen’s best songs were performed by Manfred Man’s Earth Band
Couldn’t happen to a better AH.
Asbury Park and E Street shuffle were great albums. Nothing really after that.
His politics suck. I always change the radio station when I hear him.
I’m with you regarding Springsteen - never liked him and don’t now.
his music is garbage, but of course it’s praised by the insane leftist media types.
Gee, that sure is too bad.
I’ll defend him a bit.
IIRC, I was a junior in HS when Born in the USA came out. Springsteen was already popular with many in my high school, but that album was the background of my last summer of freedom - the next summer I’d be working two jobs to pay for the coming first semester of college - because it was played constantly everywhere. A lot of the lyrics resonated with those of us growing up in small town America, along with what John Cougar was putting out at the time, and it was a bit of fresh air musically having just gone through the New Wave era especially if you weren’t into the Metal bands that were gaining popularity. Remember, there was no Internet then - you basically got to hear whatever the radio played unless you wanted to spend a fortune on records or cassettes. As a teen, clubs and concerts were basically out of reach.
I don’t know if it will stand the test of time, but it seems to me to be loads better than anything I’ve heard played on the radio in recent memory (looking at you TayTay).
That said, I grew less fond of his music after BITUSA and found nuggets on the older albums more interesting. His politics suck, but I don’t expect to buy anything he puts out anyhow. I have a lot of great memories for which he was the default background singer and I’m OK with that.
I find myself listening to him every few years for a bit. There was a long time when I didn’t listen to anything he did because BITUSA was so overplayed when I was young, but his music and lyrics still do speak to various times of my young life, sometimes bad and sometimes good.
Maybe it’ll improve his looks.
Summer of 85
Greatest year of my life..
