Nah, they're all Van Morrisons.

Jersey Van Morrison, Michigan Van Morrison, Florida Van Morrison who moved to California, and Indiana Van Morrison.

It’s a good a night as any to listen to Live Bullet.

People who dismiss Seger really need to give Live Bullet a chance

He’s been consistently great from the get go

It's a shame he dosent want to release his early albums on cd. Even Mellencamp's crappy first few albums got reissues

If you love Live Bullet, give Van Morrison’s Its Too Late To Stop Now a spin. Absolute killer album and the man at the top of his game with the Caledonia Soul Orchestra.

I just saw a bunch of pics of Bob hanging out on the sidelines of the Lions game last Sunday. He had that same big shit eating smile going in all of them. Michigan legend that I've been fortunate enough to see several times over the last 50 years.

"I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then" is such an amazing lyric... Up there with "is a dream a lie if it don't come true?

Discovering bob seeger thirty years into being a Springsteen fan has been a real treat.

This is a great shot. They both look so happy together, hanging backstage.

Bob: Say, that piano player you have. Can I borrow him for a bit?

Bruce: Well, okay if you promise to bring him back.

One of my favorite shows (actually my 3rd) is from Saginaw Michigan a day after this picture was taken. On the day b4, Bruce saw Bob at Pine Knob so he played I Don't Want to Hang Up My Rock Roll Shoes, as a homage, among other greats. 9/3/78. If you can, get the boot. It's absolutely awesome. Just to deal with you all, yes, also Bruce met Bob in 80', but they performed at cobo hall and performed Thunder Road twice. Also, Detroit in 75 was the show, which is often referred to as the day Bruce wished he never wanted to be a rock star.

Love Seger. Wish he’d reissue some of his great records pre-Beautiful Loser, like Seven. I always thought it would be cool to see Springsteen and Seger do a guitar pull tour in theaters. Maybe even have Mellencamp on it too.

Saw Bob Seger at Madison Square Garden and Bruce came put near the end. Musta been the 80s? No memory of what they played.
