    Does anyone else find Bruce Springsteen to be incredibly douchey?

    I love this this song, 00:40 BS comes in with a fine guitar riff/solo.
    but I often change the lyrics to pooping all night .. pooping all night in your tub..

    Well I liked his oldest stuff. But then it got pretty boring.

    No-one's heard of him for years in England.

    But there was one thing I did like about him. Whereas most musicians set up some "trendy" limpwristed type charitable causes. Like transgendered one armed Amazonian pygmies adoption rights...

    Whereas Springsteen started giving out money for working class families in New Jersey to have double glazing installed. Which I thought was a nice thought. Altho, rather boring to receive as a present.. : : D

    He's up there in the douche category right alongside Jimmy Buffett.

    I've never been a fan or paid much attention to him but he does have a few things that credit him in my opinion. The first being in 1977 when he was arrested for defacing his own face on a billboard. The second for giving the respect he has to the memory of Joe Strummer, who happens to be my all time favorite Rock Star. And third for the appearances he does with Jimmy Fallon because the ability to have fun and make comedy at his own expence displays that he isn't typical of ego driven entertainers.

    I love his pre born in the usa stuff. But he was playing in my area one time and the workers at the stadium were on strike, I lost all respect for him when he crossed the picket line.

    Yeah, what did he do for you to say that? I don't follow him, but do like some of his music.

    A handful of catchy songs, but nothing about his music speaks to me.

    He does however have some amazing Telecasters I wouldn't mind playing. He knows a good guitar when he finds one.
