Random Picture Entry: Bruce Springsteen

Yeah, so we crushed pretty hard on Neil Young recently, and here I am doing it again with a 70s-era picture of another classic dude, Bruce Springsteen. I think it's because I learned "Brilliant Disguise" on guitar awhile ago and have been undergoing a newfound appreciation for Tunnel of Love, so Bruce in all his incarnations has definitely been on the brain. But doesn't he look absolutely fantastic here? I feel like the whole hipster mountain-man thing is going for this sort of scruffy thing but fails to achieve it in all its erotic fascination, mostly due to overcalculation. Here, Bruce seems so "effortless," that most magical and elusive and illusory of fashion words. He just seems like a man who woke up, grabbed his jacket with a sort of casual grace, and went on his merry way to becoming one of the most pre-eminent American songwriters. I hope this picture inspires all of us to be able to roll out of bed, not give a shit and realize we all are incredibly hot when we do so. Because that would make everyone's lives a lot easier, no?
