Not really into Brucie, don't dislike , don't care for. Some of his stuff is okay. I think I am a wee bit jealous of how much attention he gets compred to Seger and SEGER is FAR BETTER. I shouldn't fell that way BUT I DO. One of your links didn't work so I copied it and m going to try and post the picture of Seger and Brucie. I came on this site tonight to post about Brucie. I cut an articl out and was going to post it, but I will post the headline Seems he's going to get lots of attention at the rock Hall. See what I mean. Seger's in there too but no publicity. "ROCK HALL of FAME PUT FOCUS on SPRINGSTEEN" Starting April 1,2009 the museum has gotten it's fondest wish- the cooperatioon of 1999 inductee Bruce Springsteen in launching a new exhibit solely dedicated th the BOSS. Check it out @ http:/www.rockhall.com or http://www.brucespringsteen.net It really is a good article. Check out the Cleve. Plain Dealer/ Cleve Press OTF. Maybe you can get the whole thing. Was going to but.,I seem to be falling asleep. If any one can find it you can. Looks like it really might be pretty good. I just may out of curiousity go there to see it.

Found the article. From the Newport News, Va., Daily Press Boss helps out Rock Hall
By M.R. Kropko | The Associated Press March 9, 2009
CLEVELAND - Seeking something fresh and exciting to complement its upcoming induction ceremony, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum has gotten its fondest wish the cooperation of 1999 inductee Bruce Springsteen in launching a new exhibit solely dedicated to the Boss.
The hall on Friday announced plans to open the exhibit "From Asbury Park to the Promised Land: The Life and Music of Bruce Springsteen" on April 1, three days before the hall holds its induction ceremonies in Cleveland. Featuring various memorabilia from Springsteen, the exhibit is expected to run through the spring of 2010.
"He's someone we've always wanted to do a big exhibit on," said Jim Henke, the Rock Hall's curator. "So it's one of those things that I'd bring up with his manager from time to time. Last summer they said, 'Yes, it makes sense now.'"
It's perfect timing for a year that has been pretty Springsteen packed already. He performed during festivities surrounding the inauguration of President Barack Obama, released his latest album, "Working on a Dream," in January, then was the halftime entertainment at the Super Bowl last month. He's planning a major tour to kick off April 1 in San Jose, Calif., and will even make an appearance at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in June.
Henke says the Springsteen exhibit may be the most extensive exhibit on a rock star ever done at the hall. Previous exhibits have focused on the lives and careers of John Lennon, Bob Dylan and Ray Charles.
Springsteen has provided various guitars, including the one he holds on the cover of "Born to Run." The exhibit also will have scrapbooks and notebooks in which Springsteen wrote many song lyrics.
"Once (Bruce) knew this was real, that it would really happen, he wanted it to have as much depth as it could possibly have," said Jon Landau, Springsteen's manager and board member of the hall. "He is fully behind this exhibition and the effort the museum has made to really get things right."
Henke is hopeful that eventually Springsteen will make his first visit to the Rock Hall since it opened nearly 14 years ago. Landau said he's sure that the Boss eventually will visit the exhibit.
"I think we'll have to visit at some other time than the official opening, but Bruce is looking forward to seeing it as soon as it's possible for him," Landau said.

Hey did you guys happen to read where he messed up really bad? He came out on stage in Mi. and said HELLO OHIO! Said OHIO a few times in conversation 'til someone whispered to him about the mistake. He forgot where he was. I was going to copy the article from Yahoo but didn't. Now I wished I had. Maybe OTF you could search for it. At least he chose a SEGER song to do. What did you think of it?

Yeah there beating him up pretty bad over those comments. But he did try to make up later by saying now where the heck am i again. And his version is no way as good as our (main man). But if you look on youtube for bruce springsteen newest there is a lot from detroit he even did a body surf in the crowd. Looked like fun concert.

Yeah, they are beating him up, aren't they??? He's pretty spry for as old as he is and the crowd loves him. As for me I'll stick with SEGER. I think he's got it all over Bruce.
