Happy 60th Birthday, Mr. Springsteen!!
A toast to the man who did his utmost to get our last two democratic nominee's elected President. To the man who provides critical social commentary and lifts the spirits of the flagging. Who now approaches two generations of an excellent career. Oh yeah, almost forgot. The best damn rock and roller this country will ever see. Have a good one, Bossman!! PS...don't retire anytime soon. The AARP can wait.

2. Had the chance to see him in Des Moines, Monday
Gave a PSA about the Iowa Food Bank and it's importance to the needy in these troubled times. Volunteers were set up at every aisle exit. The volunteer I saw had a plastic pretzel jug filled to the top with various paper currency. I imagine they came out with a pretty good haul. My husband and I like to take a "first-timer" everytime we see him. Bruce NEVER fails to blow them away. Then they're hooked. Happy 60th, Bruce!

5. The amazing thing....
just saw him in May in St. Paul- the same tour. You'd of never known it from Monday's show. Totally different. Not a packed house which made Bruce work even harder. Send a video to the up & coming bands. Here folks- this is how it's done.

10. I saw him at Glastonbury this year
Absolutely awesome. Apparently some people were complaining because he didn't play Born in the USA, but everyone anywhere near where I was seemed to be loving it, all two and a half hours of it.
