Corollary: Bruce is just for old people -- we're just turning into old people. I mean, we're cool old people, but we're still turning into old people ;)
Yes. And the growing-up-in-Jersey thing made me wary. But then I never held any irony for Bon Jovi. That is just pure Central Jersey love right there.
I was finally swayed by his half-time performance at the SuperBowl when he did a slide on his knees and took a camera to the nuts, smiled and kept on rocking. Tal and I saw Springsteen in concert 2 summers ago and it was hands down the best show I've ever seen. A man did fouette turns while playing guitar. Bruce crowd-surfed like, 3 different times. The man is 64 years old and it went on for 4 hours.
It helps that a lot of his songs were the soundtrack to my childhood, not because my parents are huge fans, just by virtue of my location. Then I started listening to his politics. Then he teamed up with Jimmy Fallon.
