I hope never to be famous enough for famous people to know or care who I am but if I did, and I found out a band I liked didn’t like me, I’d probably sulk for a little bit – BUCK DHARMA AND ERIC BLOOM DON’T LIKE ME!!! – but mostly just stay away.
Whatever the politics, I find kind of sad the stories of Chris Christie’s ongoing efforts to hang out with Bruce Springsteen. Christie – like all white men from the (broadly defined) NE – seem to have an unslakable man-crush on Springsteen. Yet faced with some serious snubs by Springsteen, he remains a fan boy. I don’t see how one could remain a fan of someone, but Christie has been to dozens of shows over the years, still pining for Bruce Springsteen to somehow like him.
