Man, did you see Springsteen on the halftime show last night? He jumped, skipped, danced, shimmied, duck walked, dropped to his knees, slid crotch first into a camera, got back up from his knees, hovered over the audience, let the audience hover over him, used his guitar as a hula-hoop, did a time check with Steve Van Zandt, got flagged by a referee, and announced he was going to Disneyland. He also sang three classics ("Tenth Avenue Freeze Out" "Born to Run" "Glory Days") and one new song ("Working on a Dream"), which, thanks in part to last night's performance, may someday end up a classic.
Not bad for a guy pushing 60.
Or maybe the prospect of turning 60 is what pushes him.
Glory days
Well, they'll pass you by
Glory Days
In a wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days
Well, they certainly haven't passed the Boss by yet. That young girl's eye must be epoxied shut!
