Grandpa Jones on his worst day was better than Springsteen on his best.

Exactly.
I saw Springsteen in 1974 when I was in college (and before he was known outside the Philly/NJ metro area). It was a great concert. But I imagine college kids look at Bruce Springsteen today the way I looked at Frank Sinatra back then.

True, he's some old hack to most kid's today. Nothing is "yuckier" than to worship the same guy your parents did. :)
