Bruce Springsteen Forum

I heard on KKRW in Houston this morning on my way to work that Bruce has been asked to play the halftime show at the next Superbowl. They also mentioned that he and the E-Street Band are in the studios and will be releasing an album and touring later this year!

NFL Already Worried About Super Bowl XLII Halftime Show

The NFL is apparently figuring that there's only one way to top this year's completely epic performance by Prince at this year's Super Bowl, and that's to bring in The Boss. From Variety:

Bruce Springsteen and Norah Jones are at the top of the list. The NFL is hoping the recent successes of Prince, the Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney can be used as leverage to bring in the Boss while Jones would be ideal to sing the National Anthem during the pregame ceremonies, according to NFL VP of programming Charles Coplin.
The league is starting to approach performers "earlier than ever before in our history," said Coplin. "The music business is going through some hard times. Performers care deeply about their album sales, and an appearance on the Super Bowl can move the needle dramatically."

Coplin points to the sales that followed Prince's performance at this year's Super Bowl. His overall album sales in the follow-ing week more than doubled to 31,000 and his digital downloads rose to 102,000 from 59,000.
While we're pretty sure that a performance by Springsteen would be nearly as epic as Prince's (maybe he can throw in a cover of "Big Me," just for good measure?), we have to wonder just what the NFL would decide to do for the next Super Bowl, because the "how-can-you-top-that" Monday morning chatter will surely be in full force should the Boss play. Clearly, the only solution to that speculation is the announcement of an endless U2/Prince/Springsteen cycle until at least Super Bowl L, when the downgrading of expectations from "extra large" to merely "large" will usher in an era where the 3-D Elvis concept becomes acceptable once again.

'BORN TO RUN' WOULD BE NATURAL FOR SUPER BOWL
Post Staff Writer

February 27, 2007 -- BRUCE Springsteen is being considered for next year's Super Bowl halftime show.
Springsteen, along with Norah Jones, is at the top of the NFL's wish-list for halftime performers, according to Variety.

The NFL has snared huge names the past few years in the wake of Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" - with Prince, the Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney performing.

Album sales for all of these performers jumped after their Super Bowl exposure, reports Variety.
