When you use your music and concerts to jump into the pool and push a political agenda/party, you can't not hope to get wet.
But the thing I always thought was funny was when Chrysler wanted to use Born in the USA in their commericals. Didn't they listen to the lyrics? Don't they know who Springsteen is? He obviously said no but who's the idiot in Chrysler's marketing department that thought that was a good idea...........
Point taken, that's why I asked nicely not to take it in that direction. I was only trying to share
with possible fans that he had an album coming out.
But whatever! Bash his politics however you want. He is still a brilliant musician.
