    I have friends who’s political stance I don’t agree with.  Enjoying a stranger’s music is no big deal regardless of their beliefs.

    I know.  But PJ has said for more than what Bruce said.

    Yes actions can illuminate stupidity.

    Trashing your own belongings as a form of protest. I don’t get it. 

    OP burned his Nike’s a couple weeks back too, yeah? Brilliant.

    If anyone doesn't want their Springsteen records anymore, please send them my way - then they will be banished from the USA.

    Im just a casual Bruce fan,  but I find it surprising to read so much dislike for his music.  Its subjective, but Nebraska, Devils and Dust, My Hometown, 41 shots.  Come on, folks!! Must be something of his you like, no?

    You know breaking bruce records  is a good idea.  Not because of a protest, but because Bruce makes freakin boring music.

    Why would someone who wants to break Bruce records because they are boring have one in the first place. I hate Nickleback and would love to break some of their records, but I dont have any.

    They sure as hell ain't boring.  If this were the 19th century, Dylan would be Emerson and Bruce would be Thoreau.  He writes more lyrics, meaningful ones, in one song than most writers do for an entire album.

    No shit. Boring is probably the last word I would use to describe his music. Whatever, im gonna go smoke a j, turn my headphones on max to High Hopes and  mow my lawn. Peace.
