“Who decides? The boss decides,”
-Bruce Springsteen on the selection of the Superbowl half-time set-list.
The Boss promises a “12 minute party” at the half-time of the Superbowl this year.
He’s not saying what he’ll play but here are 12 minutes of his classics…
Glory Days
Born To Run
Born In the USA
We’ll see how close the prediction is….
