Generation Gap

Who???
As I was leaving the gym last Saturday, there was a father and his two young sons (maybe 6 and 8 years old) walking out the door with me. This was their conversation:

Dad: Hey guys, there is a Rock Star in there exercising.
Boys: Oh
Dad: Yes, I want you to meet a Rock Star
Boys: What?
Dad: A REAL Rock Star, Bruce Springsteen
Boys: Who?
Dad: Remember the Super Bowl and who performed at Half Time? Bruce Springsteen?
Boys: No
Dad: Come on, I want you to see him and meet him
Boys: Do we have to?
Dad: You will remember him when you see him.
Boys: Can we go now?

At that point, the boys, whether they wanted to or not, were marched back to the gym floor to meet the Rock Star, The Boss himself, and I departed. I wonder if they remembered him from The Super Bowl half time show..he looks a little different when he is working out.....
