    That’s funny. The plaid shirt kind of loses its grungy/blue colorness when it’s custom fit and tailored by a high end haberdasher.

    What? Did you miss this part? Or this part? $500 is insane, but some people will pay it. More likely the fat bankers he likes to complain about and not the blue collar fans he sings about.

    That’s hilarious Daisy, well played. I’ve locked Western Stars away in my own private vault.

    Wait, he played Reno? I read in this thread that it wasn’t about sex. Quick, somebody call him and tell him what his songs are about!

    Album, hands down. I’m not much of a concert goer. That said, I would get to choose the style of album, right? Western Stars need not apply.

    Tom Hanks, Butch Patrick, and Bruce Springsteen’s grandfather?

    The other choice is to buy your daughter a million dollar ‘orse

    I think starting out as Johnny Cougar hurt the perception of him by many.

    Walk Like a Man. I suppose Real Man would apply as well, but for entirely different reasons.

    If it’s a misinterpreted song, that’s Bruce’s fault. He wanted to make some money and that wasn’t going to happen with that boring acoustic version. If he didn’t want it to sound like an anthem, he shouldn’t have gone for the cash.

    It’s nice of Bruce to take his grandma out four lunch.

    The song was written in the eighties. It certainly wouldn’t fly now.

    Well, I don’t think Springsteen is a genius. I think he’s just a guy who is a hell of a storyteller. When he tells stories he does well. When he talks politics he generally sounds foolish to me. I think he does much, much better letting his songs speak for themselves than he does detailing how his songs are about how bad the Republicans are. As for good use of Patti Scialfa’s vocals, I’ll just kindly disagree.

    Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. Still didn’t enjoy any bit of that song, but tastes differ. I do hate when Bruce talks partisan politics as I think he comes off sounding poorly when doing so. I think partisan politics is embarrassing for whoever takes part in it to be honest, regardless of which side you’re on. The inability of people to call out “their side” completely discredits their point of view in my eyes.

    Not sure I ever really listened to this song before. Just did and don’t think I will again. More stream of consciousness/spoken word than a song. What era was this recorded during? Joad?
