    Glad I bought tickets to NY. I'd rather just see Eddie and Eddie only. Nothing against Bruce, but special guests are meant for PJ shows only.

    Haha... You'll probably get stuck with Ben Harper ruining an acoustic version of Indifference.

    Tell Bruce to make up his mind as to whether he's a patriot or a communist. One day he's singing songs of heroes losing their lives on 9/11 and the next day he's singing an anti-cop song. Make up your mind. Born in the USA...i think NOT! What a fucking phony.

    What are you talking about???

    Ugh.

    I have to sign off this board.....

    Bruce is awesome. My intent was maybe to discuss the possibility of him coming out and doing a tune with Eddie, not to get into this pissing match about him sucking, or special guests (yeah, it sucked when Ben Harper and Jack Irons came out to play with him in LA). If that's what some are looking for is a thread to complain, then...

    piss in my parade.

    I would like to see Bruce come out and do My Hometown or Growing up with Eddie. Maybe Atlantic City. All would kickass.

    Born down in a dead man's town
    The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
    You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
    'Til you spend half your life just covering up

    [chorus:]
    Born in the U.S.A.
    Born in the U.S.A.
    Born in the U.S.A.
    Born in the U.S.A.

    I got in a little hometown jam
    And so they put a rifle in my hands
    Sent me off to Vietnam
    To go and kill the yellow man

    [chorus]

    Come back home to the refinery
    Hiring man says "Son if it was up to me"
    I go down to see the V.A. man
    He said "Son don't you understand"

    [chorus]

    I had a buddy at Khe Sahn
    Fighting off the Viet Cong
    They're still there, he's all gone
    He had a little girl in Saigon
    I got a picture of him in her arms

    Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
    Out by the gas fires of the refinery
    I'm ten years down the road
    Nowhere to run, ain't got nowhere to go

    I'm a long gone Daddy in the U.S.A.
    Born in the U.S.A.
    I'm a cool rocking Daddy in the U.S.A.
    Born in the U.S.A.

    One should learn before they speak. And the anti cop song wasn't anti cop, it was anti launching 41 bullets into an unarmed citizen.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
