If you haven’t seen the exhibit yet but want to, you should know it’s been extended until the end of 2010. As you know, I’m a big Springsteen fan. And although the Rock Hall of Fame is only about 45 minutes from me, I haven’t been there yet. Basically because I need a time to go by myself. I’ve only been to the museum twice, but I don’t feel it’s very kid-friendly. And if my husband comes with me, we’d need to get a sitter, which would make the already pricey admission ($22 for adults, or $18 if you’re a Northeast Ohio resident with ID) even more expensive. I’m curious what fans think of it …
Speaking of Springsteen, the other night I was in my husband’s car (with the XM radio which he did renew after the initial 90-day free period, which helps feed my Springsteen fix) with E Street Radio on of course and I heard the Bob Dylan song “I want you.” I actually sat in the car until the song finished. I swear I hadn’t heard that song in well over 20 years yet I still remembered half the words. I immediately came home to see if I could download it on iTunes, which I couldn’t, but I saw it was on YouTube. I rarely visit YouTube so I was surprised and delighted to see so many rare Springsteen songs there (I can’t actually call them “videos” because, for example, “I want you” shows only a picture of Springsteen from the ’70s while the song plays — but hey, that’s good enough for me!). I haven’t had time to watch/listen to the other ones, but I’m sure looking forward to doing that!!
