Bruce and Politics

Wow, Springsteen's really been taking a trouncing in the comments over on Blogcritics, primarily due to his announcement about the concerts to unseat Bush. Don't art and politics go hand in hand? Isn't that one of the reasons why people make art? There are some artists whose work has always been political, even if not overtly so. Springsteen is one such artist. Anyway, all of this has made me think that I need to do a review of "The Rising" pretty soon, so maybe that'll be my next project.
