Can't Escape From the Common Rule

I'll have more to say tomorrow, but for now, I leave you with a TRE-MEN-DOUS performance of "The Ghost of Tom Joad" by Bruce Springsteen with a special appearance by Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello.

Speaking of Springsteen, a week or two ago, the NFL announced that Bruce and the E Street Band would be performing at Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa next year. It seems that since the Justin/Janet Wardrobe Malfunction in Houston a few years ago the NFL has decided to play it a little safer with halftime performers such as McCartney (2005), The Rolling Stones (2006), Prince (2007), and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (2008). I know, I never thought I would use the words "safe" and "Prince" in the same sentence either.

So, everyone, what are your thoughts on the choice of Bruuuuuuuuuce? Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down? Likely bathroom break?
