Tonight, Bruce is playing QUICKEN LOANS Arena, & people are probably getting the show of their lives! But, is the irony lost on him as he stands atop "banker's hill?" No need for him to stop performing @ TD Garden, Wells Fargo, First Niagra et al. Better for him to acknowledge that many average Americans took loans they couldn't afford, that amateurs started flipping houses & that we all elected officials who encouraged low rates & easy loans & asked Fannie & Freddie to keep the Ponzi going!

Since Bruce invites a conversation with his audience, here goes. At 1:51 , he stereotypes Wall Street as thieves. Wall Street provides the funding and liquidity that allows companies like Apple, Microsoft, and (his $110 million sugar daddy) Sony to exist and thrive. Yes, there is more greed on Wall Street than your typical business, but painting all of of Wall Street as one big boogeyman is just an unthoughtful jump on today's populist bandwagon. He can do better and always has.

Bruce knows one thing. how to make money for Bruce. give me a break. do you really think he gives a shit about you at the end of the day.

That is HOW HE TALKS..part Jersey, part everything else. He is very intense when he talks about what he believes/his work...yet, other times he is self-deprecating, funny, etc... always, always articulate and very intelligent.

Bruce is the greatest artist of our time. From someone that lived the difference from American ideals to American reality .Katrina.

Who the hell is a socialist? You republicans need to lay of those accusations. Better yet... nevermind, keep them coming. They'll work wonders for you guys in the next election, lol.

Amazing human being..Of such great talent and spirit!

If there's some decent people on Wall Street they wouldn't be fighting regulations tooth and nail. They'd offer up the crooked sociopaths to be sentenced. Nice goddamn try, buddy...but I'm not buyin' yer junk.

[Brlnbabies]

He's intense and very Jersey.

[Winston Goddamit]

Big fan of Bruce but never watched an interview featuring him before; is he just extremely intense or was he drunk here?
