there is not the enthusiasm that the MSM says there is. Of course Fox did the obligatory 15 minutes of putting this has been on the air like it was Woodstock revisited. What a Putz who can’t sing by the way - he always just had a great back up band. Also he had a pretty, gorgeous wife and dumped on her for that used up looking Patty Scaflia. Old news, everything about Obama is old news and thank God we have the freshness of Sarah Palin.
and another thing........
what about some dignity here. when does it look ridiculous for an old man to think he is a rock star. The rolling stones are like looking at a rest home sprung from their rockers. revolting. and how many times can you listen to “can’t get no satisfaction. when are the boomer men gonna to get some dignity and wisdom. never. i guess. you want rock star go to gateway pundit’s blog and look at Sarah’s post vp debate rally. rock star she is.
Forced Obama re-education camps required by the college administration next? So as to not miss out on federal funding for programs?
Building the future from the bottom up with Obaba’s civilian security and freedom corps. Yes we can! We’re going to get in your face.
“The next tip is to be absolutely ruthless,” Jocelyn Woodards tells the (Obama) campers. “We want you to be determined, ambitious, take a risk.”
Even if Obama loses this election, what is he going to do with his “troops” that he and Soros have spent so much money training?
Over the top? You be the judge...

Springsteen is so yesterday, I can’t see college age kids that excited about seing this guy who was mostly second rate anyway.
They probably would just snicker at some old guy who still thinks he is cool and matters.

His was the only concert I walked out of in 1981 because I couldn’t stop yawning.
I'll tell you why the Jonas Brothers sell..... melody and lyrics. They can be heard. My son is starting to play guitar and likes the Beatles , John Hooker, and Albert King stuff I've got laying around. Cause he can understand the words and play along. The new stuff like rap doesn't lend itself to repetition, I can't see my self or I guess they can't see themselves humming along and singing "Gin and Juice".... or any of the current rap cr#p.
Something with a melody and lyrics sells cause others can relate to the message. That's why country is getting huge, jazz tunes like "That's All" and the blues will always be around.
Jeff Beck and Clapton still attract a crowd cause they're good musicians. click here.... Like Knoffler mixing it up with Atkins.. great musicians always have gigs. listen to the melody... timeless
He has aspirations of being a politician. Oh, go for it, pony boy. Go for it. I'd love to see a true intellectual tear you to shreds.

Careful, SatinDoll. You must be gentle in your descriptive phrases used regarding your worldly wise elders, lest they flame or ZOT you. ~<|;o)
isn’t one of the complaints of the young that (fill in the blank) is so 70’s .. other than maybe a polyester leisure suit, what is more ‘70s than Springsteen ?
1st half of 2008 concert receipts:
Bon Jovi and Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band were No. 1 and 2; Bon Jovi grossed $56.3 million and Springsteen pulled in $40.8 million.
Following them in Pollstar's top 10 are:
Van Halen ($36.8 million),
Kenny Chesney ($35.3 million),
Michael Bublé ($32.5 million),
Kanye West ($31.6 million), Jay-Z/Mary J. Blige ($30.7 million),
Rascal Flatts ($25.4 million),
and the Spice Girls and the Police (virtually tied at about $23.3 million each)
What’s your point? He’s still a jackass.
