Bruce at The Super Bowl....

Speaking of fat slices of Americana did you notice that it's "big Steve" instead of "Little Steven"?

I will apologize for the sarcasm. Everybody is different from everybody else and even the same person is different from who they used to be (at least creatively). I mostly appreciate the differences, but I also understand people being influenced by those that came before them. I won't give up my Dylan favorites, but I also like "Lucky Town"...

Slothman,
It was indeed pride that I too had felt. Watching Jennifer Hudson give such an exceptional performance after such a horrible personal tragedy was more than just uplifting, it was quite moving as well.
Moving to Freehold NJ in 1967 from the Bronx introduced me to the music of Springsteen at a very early age and to see him come so far and do it with such Class and humor was nothing short of incredible. The fireworks, the laughter, the hometown hero. It was inspirational for me.
Not to mention that interception where the guy ran for 100 yards. It was a fun night of TV.

I agree.

Jennifer Hudson gave one of the finest fake singing performances in the history or pre-recorded music.

Super Bowel more like.
