Bruce Springsteen is the Trot Nixon of Greatest Artists Of His Generation.
Im not sure what that means, he gets his uniform dirty?, he's gritty?
Solid contributor with a working class persona who is likable on the merits but quite overrated by sports talk radio guys who don't like "flashy" black players/musicians.

I'm looking forward to this. I know some (maybe even many) people have really cooled off on Ryan Adams, but he remains (at least in my opinion) a talented and interesting performer.

I figured his belated response was going to be that tone deaf.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

I kinda want to challenge him on the "i'll give you your money back" response: Buy a $1K ticket, go to the show, determine it was not worth $1K and get the money back. Free Bruce ticket. Boom.

I would love to see how this would actually pan out. We would need video of you cursing and scowling the entire time. Better send me or Doc.

I humbly cede the opportunity to you to spend an evening with a bunch of aging Springsteen fans.

Aren't you obliged to go to a Springsteen concert in an American-built automobile no later than 1980 vintage?
