Looked stiff, fat, puffy, old, and camera caught his shoes--2" elevators!

I thought the fireworks during the show were better, and they didn't cost $10 million.

those telecaster windmills made me nervous........hate to see him bang up such a nice guitar.

otherwise I missed most of the show......too busy with eating, peeing, etc.

......plus he hit his peaNUTS while sliding across the stage.

I myself enjoyed the performance, of course I'm one that don't ask much out of life.

Looked to me like that guitar has seen enough of a beating over the years that you might not notice a new ding or two.

I've never been a Boss fan although I get why he appeals to some. That said, I thought it was probably about as good of a performance as he can give anymore considering his age and such a short format.

Honestly, I probably couldn't tell a great Boss performance from a bad one. Just don't dig his music that much. It sure beat that travesty a few years back with Brittany Spears, Justin Timberlake and Aerosmith though. Now that truly, truly sucked.

I was hope-ing to appear on stage with the boss and have him rip off my shirt by accident(a la Panama Canal) but the censors rejected it. Gotta be a black woman to make that work. I told them to just go wif the pyrotechnics. Security arrested me.

I know my secret friends had the TiVo on just in case.

Oh well there is always next year!

Not a fan.

Not at all. No songs sound good to me, and he keeps on yelling "1, 2, 3" during the damn songs, regardless.

And truly, I can't tell his guitar playing (or lack thereof). He (and the other really old guy) seem to be just a minor sound in the cacophony. All horns and piano, to me. When he did the windmill ala Townsend, I chuckled my ass off. He wasn't even strumming in time to the beat. The swinging around his neck was all for show, he didn't bother hitting the strings other than to grab the neck.

I dunno, maybe it looked cool.

As a songwriter, ok. Not my cup of tea, but I can see some of the appeal. Goes on way too long for me, though.

As a singer, he's horrible.

As a guitar player, even worse.

Springsteen definately sucked . . . Although I don't know how anyone can claim that Walk This Way would ever suck ...

I am a big Bruce fan. The halftime show was actually better than I expected it to be. I didn't think the setting was going to work for his style but I thought it did... but then I am a fan.

#13- If you do a little research you will find out that he is actually a very good guitar player.

#14 Remember when Kurt's wife had the really butch, short brown hair with highlights? I had to back up the DVR when the announcer said her name. Didn't even recognize her.
