You know tramps like them can’t stay in one place forever, they were born to run.

Maybe young people aren’t so stupid OR they’re not interested in an old fossil like Springsteen. He must be near 60 years old!

Oldies guys like Springsteen usually need to get a bunch of other oldsters to tour with them. It can be pretty cool for us other old-timers to go see Iron Butterfly, Steppenwolf, Blue Cheer, The Boxtops, Foghat, etc., do their greatest hits. A lot of people enjoy those retro concerts but nobody would go to see just one of those bands.

Maybe Springsteen should try to get a spot with Ringo Starr’s All Star Band. Or at least try to find some other rockers who were big 35 years ago and who would join him on tour. Maybe The Captain and Tennille would join him! Why not? Make a few bucks, have some fun....

Brucie probably thought he was going to have a crowd of 30,000 or something along those lines to listen to him shill for 0bama.

Sucks to be Brucie, I guess.

PLEASE, do NOT mistake the size of the crowds for how the vote will go down.

I recall oh so well how Pres Buss drew HUGE crowds, and how Algore's crowds were so small.

Do you all recall how THAT election turned out?

Because of cheating, one of the closest in our history..

I always thought he sounded like a sick cow. Never understood the attraction.

The whole New Jersey music thing - Springsteen, Bon Jovi, The Jonas Brothers - I never got it.

Meanwhile, a Miley Cyrus concert will have lines stretched around the block.

Growing up in Jersey, I used to really appreciate Springsteen. Over time it's unfortunate that he's morphed himself into a sorrowful sock puppet for the radical left.

Perhaps they could entice more fans by publicizing that walkers and oxygen tanks would be provided.

Some rock musicians have stood the test of time, at least the test of 30 or so years. Bruce is NOT one of them. I’ll admit I liked him in the late 70’s and early 80’s. But his old stuff is really dated. Nobody cares about him today. I’ve heard Springsteen tickets are very easy to come by nowadays. Unlike performers like Eric Clapton or Jeff Beck who I’ve seen relatively recently Bruce just seems to be a has been. Clapton and Beck are older than Bruce but their music adapts to the times and is timeless. Bruce if you are listening you really Pis*ed Off a lot of people with your politics.

I can’t help but think that this lack of enthusiasm is based on the fact that BO has run a smoke and mirrors campaign to begin with. The crowds seemed to have evaporated. Here in Richmond, VA the bumper stickers are fewer, the crowd at the 4th annual “Republican Round Up” in Richmond (an Eric Cantor event) had 3x’s the crowd than the past.

I was Charlottesville yesterday on Carter Mountain. Every year there’s an apple picking festival up there and we’ve gone with friends for the past 8 years. Thousands of people and only a handful of BO bumper stickers. In past years, the Gore and Kerry stickers were everywhere. C-ville is extremely liberal.

LOL! Springsteen sucked in the 80’s and 90’s and he sucks today. A couple of hits maybe, and Born in the USA??? That was a rant actually of how he cant stand America. Springsteen suck big time.

I knew Sprinsteen was overblown when George Will mentioned him favorably in one of his columns.

Sprinsteen has been a bore for at least twenty five years. imho.

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.
