".We told you it sounded fishy. No matter how much collective wishful thinking we may have directed at it, it turns out the rumor (and track listing) for a new Bruce Springsteen album called Arcade at Night came from the imagination of a poster over at dysfunctional Backstreets.com message board BTX. You need to be a member to see the page, but here’s the confession in a nutshell, from “bill” at BTX:
Listen, I fooled all of you with making up that press release. It was a joke, now I am being contacted by media outlets on how I got the track listing etc.. Look, it’s your own dumb faults whomever believed it. People took with it and ran with it, like most Springsteen fans do, they take stuff and claim it as their own, but whatever. That dude from Italy is a dumbass, as is anyone who took it as gospel. Shame on those who believed it, and shame on those who took it to press. By now if you haven’t learned how things work in this camp, then you never will. Just like those morons saying that when i posted those pics of Bruce in nyc, that he was there to do fallon. WHEN IN THE PAST F–ING 12 YEARS has a Springsteen performance on TV never been announced of publicized? Listen friends, if an album is coming out, you will know about it because things start buzzing. I’m just a 19 year old kid, even I know this stuff.
Hmmm … He doesn’t exactly sound contrite. But the names he’s being called by other BTX members is probably punishment enough. (Stan the Man at NJ.com also confirms it was a hoax.)
Meanwhile, album scuttlebutt continues to percolate, and we have it on good authority that recordings are in the can. Of course, with Bruce that could mean the inclusion on a box set in 2041 rather than a new album, but we’ll continue to keep the faith."
