Title: Re: lyrics quiz Post by: Bob's Orange on Thursday, December 4, 2008, 11:32:53 Why is he called The Boss? In the late 1960s, Springsteen performed briefly in a power trio known as Earth, playing in clubs in New Jersey. Springsteen acquired the nickname "The Boss" during this period as when he played club gigs with a band he took on the task of collecting the band's nightly pay and distributing it amongst his bandmates Title: Re: lyrics quiz Post by: sonic youth on Thursday, December 4, 2008, 11:57:43 5.
