That song blew then and it blows now.

Just work up a good thick hocker and grumble some shit. You too can be famous.

You poor folks are just jealous of his wealth, fame & groupies. :p

Monster, maybe it's just me, but this doesn't seem arrogant. It seems ironic, "cheering" for the U.S.A. while decrying its actions and present-day reality.

(FTR, was never a fan of the song either.)

Whaddaya mean YOU poor folks?

And yes, I am jealous.:cool: And poor.

Would that be we poor folk? I'm with you cap'n.
Gotta admit he does give hope that anyone can become famous and insanely rich.

I've seen xoB's doodads ons the doodad thread. If he isn't rich he's got some killer ass doodads that look expensive to me. Maybe he's actually Jimmy Hoffa.

I miss the doodad thread.

Can you say doodad? I can. heeheehee....

I didn't include myself because I like Springsteen, especially the E street band.

capnhowdy 02-15-2009 07:26 PM
Great band. Powerful sound.
Maybe he has an accent that makes him hard to understand while he's in character. I always liked the T shirts w/ the star. What a star.

classicman 02-15-2009 07:40 PM
I love the E street band - I just don't like him so much.

footfootfoot 02-15-2009 08:54 PM
Born to run was a great album and for that I will forgive him his couple of extremely suckola songs.

But he is still on report

spudcon 02-15-2009 09:19 PM
If all else fails, inadvertently drop a whole package of ExLax in front of the offending sucker.

What's a doodad thread?

Clodfobble 02-16-2009 03:25 PM
A thread which no longer exists.
