    Default Springsteen stands up fans

    always thought this fucker was over rated, he's in Bozo's pants

    Millionaire rock star Bruce Springsteen deliberately chose to ‘hurt economically’ fans, workers and small businesses by his last minute cancellation of a concert in Greensboro, North Carolina set for Sunday in protest of a state law known as HB2 that bans men from using women’s bathrooms. Springsteen cancelled the date Friday afternoon, just two days before the April 10 show which would have featured the complete playing of his 1980 album, The River.

    Bush league move by Bruce...

    You only hurt your fans doing that...
    You know, the last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing.

    To be fair, and I am NOT a Springsteen fan, he was an adult when I was in 4th grade. Probably got emphysema or some shit by now.

    I never saw the thrill in him.

    His voice sucks...all he does is shout with not a bit of quality in it.....
    Always gravelly and off key. Sounds more like a garage band singer
    than a real talent.

    For the Era, Neil Diamond was/is much better.

    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    I like Dancing in the Dark. You can sell the rest to someone else. You don't get to pick n choose what gets played in Okinawan bars and their idea of pop culture was/is weird. I don't like but one Billy Joel song either.

    Thanks for the Neil Diamond reference you goof. Now instead of having "Love Me Tender" stuck in my head it's "Sweet Caroline". You should be shot.

    I agree. I've never liked him. He had a good fiddle player in the 80s is all I really remember about him. And my grandmother would totally agree with the yelling crap. She couldn't stand Patty Loveless for the same reason. SHe doesn't sing ... she yells. I had never even considered it previous to that.

    Now Reba? THAT is my girl. Anyone has a problem with her gets negged twice a week for eternity.

    If you know the lyrics to I'm on fire, that would be even more disgusting.

    Yeah, well I never went that far with it. It was a dance song in the early 80s in Oki.

    Never have been a fan of Bruce, but if I had been...and was one of the fans he stood up, I would sure as hell let him know that his stunt made me an "ex fan" of his and never again. Why do these morons in the entertainment business 'think' that we give a damn about their political views...to the point that they always have to express them? It's stupid.

    That's rather the point of a boycott.
