I wish they could do something about this fat slob- I saw a little news feature yesterday about celebrities and how they would fare in the political arena - they referred to Michael Moore as " a common man of the people" -' Self proclaimed "man of the people"- why is it always some rich fat slob( Teddy Kennedy,Dodd, Jesse Jackson etc) that live in opulence, lie their butts off, and have media back them up as "for the people"!!!!!!!!Arggghhh!Barf!
dittos newz - I saw bajillionaire Bruce Springsteen here in Cleveland Monday night pretending to be Woody Guthrie as he introduced bajillionaire John Kerry as champion "of the people".
In case anyone is interested, The Boss was playing a black cut-away Takamine. Evidently, those homegrown Gibsons and Martins are just not good enough or are otherwise inappropriate to play out when you're trying to put a "global" spin on a performance. The Takamine sounded like complete and utter bullsh*t - thin and buzzy with some goofy electric-ee fake 'sustain'. The Boss read his lyrics and changes from a music stand.
Still, The Boss is The Boss is The Boss....(and Nebraska and Tom Joad are great albums)
