Bruce Springsteen to play Harley-Davidson gig
Aug 29, 2008 07:48 PM
Bruce Springsteen has long written lyrics about the struggles of working-class Americans. Harley-Davidson motorcycles have traditionally attracted blue-collar riders.
Springsteen seems like a good fit for a headlining act at the Milwaukee-based company's 105th anniversary celebration, right? It might depend on what the liberal leaning Springsteen says to the crowd.
Springsteen, who often makes political statements during performances, endorsed Barack Obama for president this month. But he will be performing to a crowd like the one that gave Republican presidential candidate John McCain a warm welcome Aug. 4 at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota. Many roared their motorcycles during his speech.
Martin Jack Rosenblum, author of 1989's "The Holy Ranger: Harley-Davidson Poems" and a featured poet in the new "Rubber Side Down: The Biker Poet Anthology," said he expected Springsteen's music to get a warm welcome, since he has successfully represented blue-collar workers over the years.
But when asked how the crowd might react to Springsteen's political statements, he said, "I have the same question, I don't know."
"You cannot find them easily on any kind of political spectrum," he said.
