Hey Billy fuckin' Altman, Bruce Springsteen didn't write The River for you smart-ass semi-big time rock critics. He wrote it to let us boring manual laborers know that we're not alone out here. Springsteen is the man who articulates the feelings of frustration we face, the need for something better than a time clock and a lunch bucket.

Hey Billy fuckin' Altman, Bruce Springsteen didn't write The River for you smart-ass semi-big time rock critics. He wrote it to let us boring manual laborers know that we're not alone out here.

Believe it or not a lot of us have talents beyond manual labor, but we can't all support ourselves as artists or be in Rock 'n' Roll bands, can we Altman? What I mean is that somebody has to build your fuckin' car, manufacture your typewriter and press the wood pulp wasted printing your dipshit record reviews.
Sawhile you look down your nose at us working class guys, remember that those of us who can't be full time artists work, and those of us who are too lazy to work and no talent end up being critics.
