I don't know why in American exist so many stupid and ignorante people. Maybe that's why Bush is a presidente (AHAHAH, I really should cry for humanity because of that instead of laughing...) Only in the USA that is possible, in no other country he could make it, he is a moron and an assassin, a really terrorist! but most of people there is ignorante... (you can send CIA after me, moron!) I am an european and for me, Mr. Bruce Springsteen represents the very best modern musician in the world! He lives and understands music in such a humble/magic and transparent way, eleveting himself and all around him to a such high place in the sky (with feet very well firmed in the ground)that is contagious, MAGIC... I saw him twice and I am proud to say I touched his hand in one of those concerts... (When I tell it, my friends ask me if did I ever washed my hand after it) For me Springsteen is the very top, he is the only musician that I follow his entirely work and carrer despite the fact of loving music in general and many other artists, from all times... Thank God you bring us something new and powerfull, Boss! (I simply love live in dublin)(and what he does with "blinded by the light" from 72, oh well...) Continue trying to save those pour souls that not even understand themselves, there, in America. Bruce is not a dog but is the best friend people can have, specially for you American people, he is a true patriot, like some others that shows truth and reality to an audience that doesn't see neither wants to see (wich is worst) and prefers all the hoolyhood representations for real life... Springsteen..., keep rocking!!! like him or not, you should allways respect the great genious, and this genious is the best friend you could have there... grace him (and God if u want, too) for that, it is the best start for being good for yourselfs... I have said.

Bruce Springsteen is better for any generation of fans out there.
The present music is a bunch of grass talking. Hear him and listen,
or better read his lyrics and then speak about Bruce Springsteen.
He is the leader of his generation in rock music and he continue to inspire and lead in truthfulness and hard working. That's why he's nickname is "The Boss". You know I'm right.........

Great to see Bruce back in action. But my evil twin then forces me to do a parody song of his at http://www.realcrash.com/the-boss-bruce-springsteen-hungry-for-a-bailout/

Oh well, at least he was for Kerry.

Hard to believe so many people are clueless about Bruce's music. You don't last over 35 years if you can't write, play,sing, and most importantly touch the hearts and souls of so many people. Tell me, are there any current musicians who will still be revered in 35 years, much less 20, or even 10? I really think some don't like Bruce's music because you really have to listen to it, it has meaning and a message. How many can sellout arenas for 10 shows in a row and play multiple shows at stadiums because demand is so high. I guess you either get it or you don't. And I feel sorry for those that don't.

Springsteen stinks,,,,amen to what you said Pat... and other's who seem to agree. Right about what he said about :bush:?? He's not "right" about anything lately, I think he sucks all the way around... and if you knew much about law, government, geography and most importantly history, you'd know that this war had to happen sooner or later.....duhhhh.
PERIOD.
