Did I hear correctly that Springsteen is going to be the entertainment at this years Superbowl? Heard it on the halftime show of SNF.

yes, it's true.
The Boss will rock, and 3 or 4 songs is just not enough. 8)

Good idea, but I bet they "strongly suggest" that with only a few songs, he play his biggest hits. I hope he throws a surprise or two in there.

I think he should just plan on playing a two-hour set, and make security come and get him offstage so they can play the second half. I'd pay to watch that on my television.

That would be pretty cool. I think they'll ask him to stay pretty mainstream....

Depending on how the game is going, they should give him the option to play whenever he wants during the game.

Being a diehard Springsteen fan. Im not shure how I feel about this gig. The ultimate corpoartae gig. Yec. So im hoping for stuff the Joe Schmow on the couch wouldnt want.

Rendevous
I agree with Prove it All night. Awsome to hear.
Thundercrack
Night
This years concert rendition of Reason to Believe.

But im sure well get a new song.I figure hes only doing this to promote something.
Glorydays
Radio Nowhere
Born to Run.

Tahnks for letting me vent!
