Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band! Following in the footsteps of Paul McCartney, U2, Tom Petty, Prince and the notorious duo of Justin Timberlake and Janet "Ooopsy" Jackson, America's greatest musical team will rock the place harder than any who have preceded them. I'm assuming.
In any case, worth sitting through football for!
