I am a former, big Bruce Springsteen fan. Unfortunately, as he and I have both matured our ideals are changing. I thought that with The Rising and many of the great songs that were there we may have been back on the same track, but with the recent campaigning for the Kerry group and his associations with moveon.org I find I was wrong.
Unfortunately, he is a great musician, songwriter, but from the beginning he is not very smart. He was easily ripped off by his managers early in his career, and now he is allowing these groups to rip off his name and music. Of course I do not doubt that he believes that he is behind a winning leader in Kerry. His allowing them to use him is what gets me.
The baton from the Hollywood Elite, the Pearl Jams, the Dixie Chicks, etc. , has been passed to him and he has accepted.
There will be no more Springsteen in my house for sometime. Hopefully, he will come back to just music without politics and we can reunite in the future.
Rest in Peace my springsteen CD's.
