I worry the guy, like Robin Williams, has secret depression that he uses comedy to cope with. His sets just have enough darkness to hint at that. ah, the absurdity of the human condition. He's got some stuff on Spotify too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard that Nebraska is an amazing album and I can never get more than 3 minutes into it. Except this one, it's got a pretty good beat. But I think I like the cute Courtney Cox cameo at the end the most. I like Bruce's music, but not a crazy fan. He's in that space like Bob Dylan for me—great artist, lyricist but not necessarily my favorite. Dylan though I've learned to respect, because artists cover his music and I love it. Bruce and Dylan, if you strip out the music, it's like poetry. I "love it" when people sing Born in the USA's refrain like the song is a patriotic song.

Here are the full lyrics to Born In the USA (I pulled this from the official Bruce Springsteen website) Boooooooooooorn in the USA!! BOOOOOOOOOOOORN IN THE USA-A!!!! Boooooooooooorn in the USA!! I was born, born, born in the USA-A! .... ... ... ... Boooooooooooorn in the USA!! BOOOOOOOOOOOORN IN THE USA-A!!!! Boooooooooooorn in the USA!! (inaudible) in the USA-A! That's it.

Elessar78 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Born down in a dead man's townThe first kick I took was when I hit the groundEnd up like a dog that's been beat too muchTill you spend half your life just covering up Got in a little hometown jamSo they put a rifle in my handSent me off to a foreign landTo go and kill the yellow man I had a brother at Khe SahnFighting off the Viet CongThey're still there, he's all gone He had a woman he loved in SaigonI got a picture of him in her arms now Down in the shadow of the penitentiaryOut by the gas fires of the refineryI'm ten years burning down the roadNowhere to run ain't got nowhere to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Saw Weezer and The Pixies last night in concert. Weezer still puts on a fun entertaining show and their covers mixed in are hilarious (and usually as good as the original). Kim Deal still rocks the bass and Frank Black (or whatever he calls himself now) are such a throwback 90s sound... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadySkinsFan Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I saw Bruce and the E Streeters a long time ago at Georgetown's McDonough Arena when they were first starting out. Great show! One song they did was Fever, the old song by Peggy Lee. Just fantastic. Edited to add: Weasel on WHFS had a copy of Fever live from that concert and would play it during his show. I recorded it but have since lost the tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 My favorite show live is one most of you probably have never heard of...or at least would never listen too. 😁 Me First and the Gimme Gimmes Punk super band whose live shows are legendary.

China Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Disney’s Aladdin Is a Fake The original, uncensored story is much steamier—at times, downright pornographic. With roots predominantly in Iran and India, The Thousand and One Nights—derived from the Middle Persian text Hezar Afsan (A Thousand Tales)—is a compendium of stories from various cultures in the Middle East and the surrounding region. The stories, narrated nightly by the Persian noblewoman Scheherazade to King Shahryar to delay her impending death, are humorous, replete with danger and derring-do. In many cases, they are deliciously erotic. Considering the volume’s frame story, in which the king and his brother Shahzaman are cuckolded, the bawdiness is to be expected. Alas, ever since the introduction of Nights to European audiences in the early 18th century by Antoine Galland, it has been censored and bowdlerized, earning its reputation in some quarters as little more than a collection of children’s stories. ...
