"He's among American music titans such as Dylan, Muddy Waters, Woody Guthrie and Robert Johnson. Both his life and his legacy have impacted the American culture ... But most of those people have passed or been embedded into American music history. Bruce is still making history. He's active and participating." Santelli was a Monmouth University student when the Stone Pony opened in 1974. Full Article at Indianapolis Star

  7. Springsteen's music is still relevant today ... He's made the transition without really saying that he feels older. He's writing for us as he always has, whether we're in our 20s, 30s, 40s . . . and now 60s.

  9. I think the older we get, the less the number really means, and we can certainly see that, in concert, Bruce doesn't act 60. It's amazing he's been so relevant and vibrant for so many years ... His music and lyrics have influenced our culture, and that's pretty neat.
