Bruce Springsteen on dd watch?

[FRANKRIZZO]

In his mid 70s had to cancel concert tour. I hope he okay though I was never a fan of his music. Better appreciation of his songs as you get drunk same with freebird lynard skinnard

Peptic ulcers can definitely be fatal, although that's usually when they go untreated. You can be sure that Bruce has some doctors.

My guess is that he survives to tour another day.

i was always indifferent at best to bruce springsteen based on his music until i heard patti smith and him did some amazing work together and suddenly i noticed his hands in a lot of really great pies, so respect.

The godmother of punk and Springsteen.

Like you, I too was always indifferent. I was instructed from an early age that Springsteen was important. I just never connected or couldn’t understand but respect anyway.

Patti Smith is beyond fascinating though.

Dunno if you ever heard this story about the creation of “Because the Night”. I offer this clip because it includes the cringeworthy Fallon. I know you have an appreciation for the perverse too.

I’m still indifferent on him. I think if I went to a live show I’d probably become a fan but the ticket would have to be virtually free.

HIS SISTER WAS RAD IN THE SLEEPAWAY CAMP SEQUELS.

[garrett]

I grew up in a tiny Elitist town in Central Jersey where he lived many years used to drive his Corvette Convertible around town

My father 90s worked in his home where we lived they redid the floors in the guesthouse.

Recently he got a DUI this summer riding his motorcycle off the National Park (Sandy Hook) lol

for those who dont know, before she made it, she lived at the chelsea with none other than robert mapplethorpe, who was really her first love. this was before he came out as gay but he was still doing photography, and if you look at old black and white pics of patti, youll find that more often than not they were taken by him.

I hate it when people say, so sad, but I never liked him anyway.

However, my douchebag or greatness scale leans to the left.

He is/was a jerk.



And there cannot be anyone who really gives a fuck. Is he not among the top ten percenters ever? Fuck his skull

It’s Groos in that song not Bruce….but close enough.

Sharpie

Forget the videos

His discography is insane.

I take it all back. There is one song I cannot place but just throw a dart and you'll enjoy



this isn't the one I'm thinking of but hey



Sorry but this includes a life lesson. And this is very unfair to the very talented Bruce Springsteen




Shout out to Jerry the freak

For those who don't remember, the February 2021 Springsteen Jeep ad was panned for two different reasons (one of which was lampooned on Family Guy, as seen above).

First, he spent 2 minutes rambling about the country needing to "return to the middle", supposedly an uplifting message about ending political division. However, Springsteen is very left himself, so he's not a good one to be delivering that message. Even the commercial took some swipes at the right at the beginning, stating "fear has never been the best of who we are" -- a common left wing talking point that Republicans are the party of fear.

The whole thing was so phony. If you can't speak for 2 minutes without veiled attacks on the right, you can't preach a return to the middle (whatever that is).

Then his DUI came just weeks after that commercial aired, and this was extremely embarrassing for Jeep, which had depicted him driving around Kansas in one of their vehicles. They put the ad on private, and it's only accessible now because someone reposted it. Family Guy lampooned the DUI thing, showing Bruce crashing into the church depicted in the commercial.

“I have a very strong biblical background,” Smith once told Rolling Stone. “I studied the Bible quite a bit when I was young and continue to study it, independent of any religion, but I still study it.”

No kidding.

Her mother was a Jehovahs Witness and she was trooped door-to-door as a kid.

When she was little she was so moved by “The Diary of Ann Frank” that she contemplated becoming Jewish.

Yet as you point out her first love was Mapplethorpe.

Mapplethorpe of course went on to commit shock & awe with his photographs. I have this vague memory of a huge national outrage about one particular exhibit. You know the stories.

Didn’t the Hotel Chelsea just serve as Warhol’s student dorms?

Clive Davis plucks her out of the NYC underground. The first lyrics on the first track ever released were:

“Jesus died for somebody’s sins but not mine”
-Gloria



Now I must shamefully admit I recently bumped into Patti Smith after a long sabbatical with the opening theme to Daisy Jones and the Six. I paid for my sins with that Amazon series.

We had some tweener girls stay at the house and they introduced me to Daisy Jones. They had an encyclopedic about Fleetwood Mac and Patti Smith and it floored me. This was all 40 years ago. Phones, and the cycle of art, huh?

Never knew much about Springsteen but I did know he suffered his mental challenges. Maybe just garden variety depression - not sure. Not sure if there is such a thing either.

We all saw him burst forth bulked up and ripped one year. The ‘roids talk was inevitable. As I understood it the gym rat thing was a “get right” prompted by his new wife/girlfriend who was a phycial fitness trainer or something of that ilk. Get the body right - get the mind right.

Didn’t really know about the DUI but it fits the profile
