Any Bruce Springsteen fans here? I saw him in concert last night for the "Vote for Change" tour. He was pretty awesome. R.E.M was there as well and it was a really great show.

I have a new appreciation for The Boss

Smooches;)

I was listening to Stern at the gym this morning, and they played a little bit of John Fogerty and the E Street band doing "Fortunate Son". Fogerty (59) sounded incredible.

I admire the cat. He's made some great music and is an influential voice. He can be a social advocate without trying to take on the messianic airs that celebrities often do in those situations.

I love the Boss but I'm boycotting this tour for political reasons. A lot of people must be joining me because it's nowhere near a sellout here and all the other Bruce shows have sold out literally within minutes.

What's the matter? You don't like the fact that one of your favorite artists is a Kerry-supporting Democrat? LOL.

I like Bruce Springsteen and I have alot of respect for him.He stands up for what he believes in and his songs always tell the truth.Plus,he extremely talented.I just hope he doesn't suffer a Dixie Chicks-styled backlash for participating on this tour.But even if does,I don't think he really cares.This election is too important.

Very true.Especially since the Iraq war has turned into such a big mess.The attitude now seems to be "Hey,The Dixie Chicks were right"

It has nothing to do with Bruce supporting Kerry it has to do with the fact the fact that if I went to the concert I would be putting the money into Kerry's hands (through the 527's).
