The Boss is the Bo$$

Saw him twice on the 'Born To Run' tour and once on the 'Darkness' tour, and that was it - awesome, 4-hour performances, but I got what I needed. I don't think I've ever owned any of his albums, though. Got a lot of respect for him, just not my style that much. Good for him for selling his catalogue like that. David Bowie did that many years ago, too... I've got no problem with artists earning as much as they want. 

@artemus_5 - whenever I hear somebody described as having 'saved rock and roll' or some such nonsense, I just laugh. Rock and roll was not waiting around for Broooooce or anybody else to save it. Didn't need saving....

500 million is a lot of money. I'd selling everything I own for 500 million and would not look back. If he sold for 1 million, he'd be a fool but at 500 million I can't see a down side. 

for those of us guilty of racing in the streets, Darkness holds a special place..

Good for any artist with an in demand catalog :-)

I am a robot racing for glory and girls…

The wild, the innocent & the E street shuffle, great album. Everything after that went downhill. For me anyway. One good album for such a long career makes real musicians like Bowie and Zappa look like geniuses.
