Submitted by BursleyHall82 on

Numerous reports on Twitter that Harbaugh is on stage playing drums at the Bruce Springsteen concert (before Bruce has taken the stage).

I mean, in his breakout year, Springsteen was on the cover of Time and Newsweek in the same week.

Migos, apparently, was nominated for a BET award called "Best Club Banger."

I don't understand what that means, nor do I know anyone who actually knows what Migos is. 

But, that's just me.

This is still less awkward than my choice of U2's "Sunday Bloody Sunday", which apparently ruins the mood, hence its inclusion on the playlist only once. I mean, it's a great song but apparently not for certain moods, so I am told. I didn't see the problem, at least not right away but whatever. I changed it out with Soft Cell's "Sex Dwarf"

ignorance is one thing; proclaiming it for all to know is worse.  Do you think that your not knowing who Bruce Springsteen is somehow detracts from his fame or importance in the music world?  Hey, I know who Elvis Presley, Glenn Miller and George Gershwin are---and they were all well before my time.

It's quite amusing people are so offended that I barely know anything about a famous musician.

Instead of actually TELLING me who he is and what he has done so I LEARN about him, I am insulted instead.

Guess what? I'm not a pop culture person. And when I say that, I mean I'm REALLY not a pop culture person. There are a ton of movies that I've never seen that are very popular, too. Sandlot, Field of Dreams, Slapshot, Bad News Bears, Big Lebowski, etc.

I never saw Billy Madison until two years ago. I've never seen Friday the 13th. You get the point.

I don't jump on people when they're not familiar with music/movies that I like.

You might have started off with that instead of brushing off Bruce Springsteen as someone "no one my age or younger knows."  Your own pop culture ignorance is fine; projecting that to everyone else, I can't decide if that's more insulting to Springsteen or to everyone else.

Springsteen has certainly become establishment in the 2d half of his career -- and to my taste meh.

But it's hard to say Darkness on the Edge of Town, The River (rare double album), or Nebraska (solo acoustic basement tapes) were establishment albums. The record companies were looking to capitalize on Born to Run, w/commercial, mainstream, which he gave them later w/Born in the USA, which was a very good pop album, but little edge (anger of title song, weirdness of I'm on Fire, exceptions). The three preceding are as good of a run as anyone has had, at least arguably.

Until USA hit in '84, Springsteen was kind of an alternative choice, in my HS, suburban Detroit, he was not very popular, somewhat unknown.

Since then, fame, establishment and meh.
