I think Bruce's words were too confrontational. Pete is a lot more than "outlasting bastards".

Pete has never been "nasty" since i've known him. Springsteen obviously doesn't know him very well.

It doesn't do anyone any good to start a fight just to vent anger.

Pete's life is a testament to constructive effort and getting along without going along.

I think Springsteen is too loud. Let Pete speak for himself.
