Listen Up, New Jersey!

Filed under: Music Minute

Because this fall is the last time to see the Boss perform in his beloved Giant Stadium in New Jersey.

Bruce Springsteen announced on Thursday that he and his "wrecking crew," the E Street Band, will be the final musical act before the stadium is demolished after the 2009 football season.

And if you are a fan of Bruce, you know he is going to tear that show up! The icon has sold out 16 shows at the stadium and 44 shows at the nearby Izod Center.

Three shows are scheduled on Sept. 30, Oct. 2 and Oct. 3.

Tickets will go on sale June 1.

      It pains me so that I own so many records made by this nutty lefty.
      What can I say..he's a great singer and the E Street Band rocks.

      While they're demolishing the stadium, they should poke around for Jimmy Hoffa.

      Bruce is a homophobe? Why then did he featured same-sex couples in his video for "Tougher than the Rest"–back in the 80s?Why did he write "The Streets of Philadelphia" for the move about homophobia and AIDs back when members of Congress wanted to quarantine those who tested HIV positive? Why did he speak out in favor of gay marriage over a decade ago? He "plays shit" with tickets? Why then did he condemn the merger of Ticketmaster and Live Nation and ask for the Feds to investigate when Ticketmaster shut his fans out from buying tickets?

      oh monica.hilton… you fail to acknowledge the obnoxious individuals who crowd the 'beach', or "jersey shore" if you will, on the weekends. there are plenty of new yorkers who come down and trash our beaches with no apologies. But thanks for coming, spending your hard earned city money and helping our towns economy!
