30 Years Too Late

I like Bruce Springsteen. I'm sorry to say I've never bought a single one of his "albums", but I respect himn as a musician, and I like a lot of his music, but I have to say I was disappointed with his performance at the Super Bowl tonight. (Here's a short clip.)



Why, he could barely hoist him himself up on that piano. He seemed to be trying to hard to be the mega-rockstar, instead of just the hardworking musician that he really is.

Now, try Bruce back in his heyday. You'll like this one: "Rosalita".



That's why they call him "the Boss".

And finally, for you John Steinbeck fans, "The Ghost of Tom Joad".



Don't get me wrong, I think he's still a great performer. I just don't think this particular venue showed him at his best.

And where the heck were the cheerleaders and dancers and marching bands? Did I miss them?
