Never understood the love for Springsteen.

I'm can't judge as I like wook hippie music like the Dead, BMFS, etc.

But music is so personal... if you grew up in the 70s and lived in Jersey, you probably had lots of good memories with the soundtrack of Springsteen.

It's the same thing for me w/ the Allman Brothers. I liked the 90s version way better than the original. I know that's fricking absurd, but I love Dickey's guitar sound of the 90s. And that's when I was coming of age... so I have lots of 90s live Allmans in my earlier life.

Read Bruce’s early lyrics, like from Asbury Park through Born to Run.

He does a great job of describing a scene where you feel like you’re there.

I’ve never thought Bruce was a great vocalist, but he’s a really great lyricist.

KISS fricking sucks


Kiss is a spectacle, like going to a Broadway show. Just listening to the music doesn’t really do it justice. It’s just silly music about sex, but the arena show is something else.

He was great when he was struggling, then he got rich and decadent. It's hard to be a working class hero when your daughter is riding her $200,000 horse in equestrian events.
