I didn't see it but then I wasn't really thinking about seeing it. All forms of art have their trajectories: cubism, dadaism, bebop, etc; They're vital for awhile and then
they fade away.Rock has its own trajectory and it's just about spent: the Arena phase of rock was the death knell of
rock as an art form. U2, the Stones, Billy Joel (more of a lounge act than a rock singer) and yes, even
Bruce Springsteen are just going thru the motions; their relevance and their artistic capacity long since
gone. They sort of belong in a museum ....
