i'm not a GIANT fan of springsteen

there are some songs i like though. i don't think i'd go to a concert or anything (but one never knows) BUT i NEVER EVER thought of him being anti or un american. EVER. i've always thought he spoke for the regular jane/joe. the worker. the blue collar american. he was one of the guys. a peep you actually could go have a beer with

beck on the other hand, i think of as someone i'd like to POUR a beer on. someone who is an absolute rable rouser, troublemaker, asshole.

that's my two cents
