Ex-Springsteen Fan Speaks Out

Bruce Springsteen You Are A Disgrace and a Hypocrite

By Marica D. Dicino

You have disappointed me for the last time as an American and a NJ resident. I have been a fan of yours since I was 11 years old in 1975. I went through three vinyl copies of Born to Run and until 2006, made sure to purchase your every album, CD, DVD, books about you, and see you in concert over 50 times. We named our beloved dog Bruce after you because of how intense a fan I was, idolizing you for 31 years. Bruce our dog is the only thing allowed in this house that has the name Bruce, as everything else has been given away, sold or tossed. The dog stays and sad to say he is too old now to change his name. After receiving your e-mail to your fans in November 2006 that basically said if you did not vote the way YOU were voting, you were stupid. I'm sorry, I don't remember you going to college and studying Politic Science that made you an informed Pundit. Celebrities are the LAST people I look to for information I need to make an informed political decision.

I was fortunate enough to have a younger aunt and uncle who introduced me to great rock and roll since I was a very little girl, and I spent those 31 years obsessing over you for naught, as your music no longer has the meaning that it had during those years. I even wrote papers about you during my high school and college years. I hear you and I hear someone who is a left-wing hater who could care less that he is diminishing and marginalizing his Conservative fans.

Now I hear that you refuse to play at Chris Christie's inauguration, as he is a HUGE fan of yours, and always had your music blaring from his campaign bus. You are a disgrace and a hypocrite, and you deserve every fan you lose, and I hope that your behavior in this matter causes other fans like me, who were blinded by your music to realize what a jerk you are, and that they never buy another product that gives you a profit. Sad. Very sad. All your music that got me through so many times in my life, happy, sad and that gave me great memories has lost all joy that I had being such a die-hard fan, and I honestly do not care. I will never pay or waste my time going to see you in concert, as I don't want to hear your left-wing proselytizing and preaching as it make me sick. As an American, I understand that you have a right to your opinions and beliefs, but I also have the right to make sure I never waste my precious time or money on anything to do with you. You have disappointed me for the last time. And I am so delighted that many of my friends see you for the rude hypocrite you are.

Well said. Clueless political morons like Springsteen and Bon Jovi think because they are famous they are smart. These birdbrains have lost touch with their fans and have no idea what their insane liberal ideologies and the Democrats who espouse them are doing to the state and the country.

Maybe Christie can get Ted Nugent to perform since they are of the same mindset.

Last I heard, its a free country for Bruce too, along with his many legions of fans. I'm sure this disgruntled fan's buying power won't be all that missed since there's always a line of people waiting to buy tickets. Maybe real fans can get in now.

Also, if celebrities are the last people on earth to give political insight, then why should it matter so much what Bruce thinks or does? STS has no trouble espousing his warped philosophy...why should it be any different for Bruce to voice his?

He has every right to play or not to play for anyone. Or did I miss something.

lol good stuff - Bruce doesen't care about this girl he has millions of other fans. He's more popular than God in New Jersey, especially in Monmouth County.

If you don't want to hear his opinions then don't listen but he's an American and has the right to say what he wants and whenever he wants just as you are - who are you to deny him that?

He also has the right to perform at any ceremony he has. Just because he wouldn't take Chris Christie's bribe to his favorite charity doesen't all of a sudden make him a hypocrite.

For Republicans who talk so much about personal rights, you sure don't want Springsteen to have the right to say and do what he wants.

You got that from what Maria said?

he'd show a lot more class, knowing the new Gov. loves his music, to show up and play, it'd do a lot to say: we may not agree on everything, but thanks, Gov., for your support, and I do wish you well.. I'm done making excuses for another phony lib who takes all they can from the sysytem they perport to hate so much!!
