      Guessing they share two qualities...1) They've heard maybe at most 10 of the 250+ songs Bruce has penned... and 2) They've never experienced Bruce/ESB LIVE. I've attended 30+ shows since 2000 alone ,and that's not even close to average for Bruce fans I see repeatedly at shows. There's a reason people come back again and again...

      Springsteen needs to keep his political views to himself. Personally, having heard way more of his music than I would like, I can admit he had 3 or 4 songs 30- 40 yrs ago that were decent.

      I was never a Bruce fan until I saw one of his tours. I left a believer and I will never walk away. Live changes everything. One of the greatest artists of our age -- and until you see him and his band on one of their tours, you may never make the 'connection'.

    Fun Fact: Bruce Springsteen's son went to the same school as me in the late 90s (although he was much younger than I was). We would often see Bruce walking around the hallways, at team games, and various school events. In fact, one time after school, I played flag football with him! He lived right across the street from the school, and I went trick or treating at his house a couple times during Halloween.

      we are all just people man. As a musician myself I can tell you that Bruce would have probably been just like any other dude at the school except he played music lol. Considering he wasn't known for his music at the time and was still a kid figuring himself out I doubt much about your school experience would have changed if you went there. You probably wouldn't have even know the dude....or wait...maybe he would have been your best friend! Maybe you would have both learned to play together and it'd be the "Steven Fischer and Bruce Springsteen Band" rofl!!! haha. You never know!!!?!?

    This is a great update to the soundtrack to my high school years. Thank you! Have been a big fan for 7 years now and have never heard a WOTE song I didn't love!
