Spenno is having difficulty accessing his RM account for some reason, but he sent me a Facebook message and told me to make sure he gets a spot before they're all taken.

We can share his picks and make him win this whole thing. He'd be eternally grateful.Kevin Davis wrote:Spenno is having difficulty accessing his RM account for some reason, but he sent me a Facebook message and told me to make sure he gets a spot before they're all taken.

Re: Chasing Some Mirage: The Springsteen Tournament
We should all vote for Spenno and make a mod change his custom title to "Springsteen Tournament Champion"

Re: Chasing Some Mirage: The Springsteen Tournament
Here are a few Bruce tunes that you may know from other people's versions of them:durdencommatyler wrote:I really don't know much about Bruce's music outside of the major hits and The Rising. So, yeah, I'd probably be terrible in this tournament. But I'm in if you need an extra player to fill things out properly. Like I said, fun way to get more familiar with the guy's work.

Re: Chasing Some Mirage: The Springsteen Tournament
I don't like where this thread is heading. Too much noise from the anti-Bruce brigade. This thing wasn't the bat signal for you mopes to step in and say you don't think he has enough to warrant a draft. In fact, the opposite is true. It's time to get humble. Time to bow down. Time to realize your limitations as a music lover if you haven't jumped on the Boss train. At the very least, it's certainly not time for you to prattle on about your uninformed opinion regarding a master of the form. Grab a digital copy and a fucking pen and take some notes!
LET'S DO THIS THING!!

I do love that song. But that 10,000 Maniacs cover is so fucking great. I still prefer their version of it.wease wrote:Because the Night is actually my favorite Springsteen tune.

Maybe, but 10 rounds seems like much
