I pretty much think Bob Seger is the shit. He's from Detroit and performed there in his early career, so he's about as American as they come. He also formed the Silver Bullet Band (just like another American icon, Coors Light) and came out with the album Night Moves. There was also the hit "Mainstreet" on that album, which has heartland America written all over it. This dude is so fuckin' American. I love him. I want to marry him.RATING: 90%
this blogs for cantadians get off my maple leaf these colors dont run
ReplyDeleteHe looks like Jeezus.
ReplyDeleteHe is Jeebus.
ReplyDeleteGlenn's not Arab he's black I asked Kroger.
ReplyDeleteYou deleted it!
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Chris. Nothing is more American than a dude wanting to marry Bob Seger.
ReplyDeleteYeah John, I felt my comment would make Glenn sad.
ReplyDeleteAnd Bryan, it's all about the great American irony (hypocrisy) of gay. Most blue collar Americans would love to make love to musicians like Bob Seger.
I always figured gay marriage was more of a Canadian/Scandinavian institution. Of course, that was just an impression I had.
ReplyDeleteChris, you know Glenn sees all in his inbox.
Right, I forgot about that. I'd be annoyed getting all those comments in my inbox. It really takes away from the gift (surprise!) that are R3 comments in their proper context.
ReplyDeleteJust so you know...I wasn't being sarcastic in the least in my earlier comment.
ReplyDeleteAnd now I have this picture in my head of the cast of Ice Road Truckers listening to the theme from The Wonder Years on repeat and crying softly into their hands.
I thought the theme from The Wonder Years was Joe Cocker?
ReplyDeleteFor some reason I've always hated Bob Seger. I mean, really really hated...
It was Joe Cocker.
ReplyDeleteAnd my apologies, Bryan. This site is typically filled with nothing but sarcasm. Or maybe that's just me.
I really want to hate Bob Seger too, but I can't. Not that I'd ever buy one of his albums, but I'm pretty sure he bleeds red, white and blue.
"Still the Same" is one of my favorite songs of all time. It makes me want to dance around in underwear and sunglasses, like Tom Cruise pre-Xenu.
ReplyDeleteWow, I'm really, really dumb.
ReplyDeleteAnd Chris, no apologies necessary, of course. You're right about the sarcasm.
im glad were all freinds again
ReplyDeleteI'm probably gonna break some hearts when I say this, but I have no fucking idea who Bob Seger is.
ReplyDeleteAlso, getting all the comments in your email is annoying, but I'm really glad I have them because now when I go home I can read the one that would (and probably already has) offend Glenn.
I think I might be the only R3 member with a job. Why aren't you people at jobs instead of reading R3 all day? Not that a job would be more important than R3.
I have a job. It's my job to look great in front of a computer.
ReplyDeleteI work from home for my job. Having to sit in front of the computer allows me to occasionally check R3, etc.
ReplyDeleteI'm a student who's not even allowed to work in the U.S., so I spend most of my time trying to find other stuff to do than read.
ReplyDeleteMy job is to apply to fucking a million jobs a day on the computer, so I have time to occasionally throw a comment or two out. Not bad for an Arab, right?
ReplyDeleteAlso, I like getting comments in my mailbox because it allows me to think I'm special when I see I have 30 new messages, and also I can tell whenever somebody puts a comment on Romeo and Juliet or something that got reviewed a year ago.
I work, but if I pretend like I'm checking some local news sites online then I'm okay.
ReplyDeleteAnd I get most of my news from R3. So it kind of works out.
22 comments and counting. I think it's nice that instead of just telling Bob Seger we love him, we're showing him we do.
ReplyDeleteExcept you, Viking Andrew. You'd better hope Bob Seger doesn't decide to weigh in when we review you.
I wonder if Bob Seger could take Brent Newland.
ReplyDeleteI can tell just from that photo that Bob Seger could take Brent Newland.
ReplyDeleteWhat can I say, I.J.? I'm as white trash as the next non-minority. His songs just drive me nuts. I wish I liked him, the same way I wish I liked the Eagles (Don Henley, UNT alum). But he reminds me too much of drunken bacchanals involving my parents.
ReplyDeleteI understand. A drunken bacchanal is the second worst kind of bacchanal. Unfortunately, it's not me you may end up having to convince...
ReplyDeleteCan we go back to the part where Bryan was dumb and thought Bob Seger was Joe Cocker? Do you know I've explained this to him BILLIONS of times?
ReplyDeleteI mean, they don't even sound the same! Joe Cocker is way better! Although I do like Hollywood Nights...
ReplyDeleteBOOOOOOOOO.
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts:
ReplyDelete1. Who is Bob Seger? I guess I should look him up on wikipedia or something.
2. Does he have a long droopy mustache that flows down past his shoulders? (Please let the answer be "yes.")
No one knows Bob Seger, but everyone knows him.
ReplyDeleteBy that I mean everyone has heard his music before.
Holy shit, 31 comments?? Who the hell is Bob Seger?
ReplyDeleteAt this point I guess it's a joke because you guys can't be serious.
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows Bob Seger.
this is some crazy a*s shit youd think bob seeger was a misoginist like allen more the way yall are pouring reviews on him
ReplyDeletelike a post fountain in the middle of a post dessert
ReplyDeletepostosasis
ReplyDeleteWe're almost up to 40. Where's Lipstickmom123, anyway?
ReplyDeleteBob Seger is the John Updike of the Illiterati.
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't mean the "soothing electronic folk rock" band you can find by Yahooing "Illiterati" to make sure you spelled it correctly Lololololololol!!!!! omg!
ReplyDeleteWho wants to be 40th?
I'd do Bob Seger from behind!
ReplyDeleteI think this post tops the LOEG for most comments, and perhaps, sadly, without as much intellectual fervor.
ReplyDeleteTranslation: America loves you Bob Seger.
The best part is that unlike LXG, less than 25% of them have been posted by me.
ReplyDeleteIs Bob Seger an atheist?
ReplyDeleteNo, but he's going to Hell anyway for that hair.
ReplyDeleteNo place in AMerica called heartland check ur facts b4 u post lies.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard a Bob Seger song in my life but I'd still like to see some post get fifty comments.
ReplyDeleteGlenn, you've definitely heard a Bob Seger song.
ReplyDeleteHoly shit guys, I've got to post some of them. You don't have to like them, but you should all know.
Against The Wind
We've Got Tonight
Mainstreet
Old Time Rock & Roll
Bob Seger everyone. The guy your mother made you all listen to when you were young.
ReplyDeleteAnd if you don't know now you know.
Did someone post about Heartland? I just want to check my facts in a post!
ReplyDeleteBrent, go home.
ReplyDeleteOh, Bob SEGER. I thought this review was about Bob Sagat.
ReplyDeleteThank you, good night.
Damn it! I thought I was 50.
ReplyDeleteGood examples, Chris. Solid, like a rock.
ReplyDelete53 (or 54 now) comments?!? Well, this shows the Bob Seger cultural relevance extends beyond Metallica's cover of Turn the Page.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah. That last comment was by me--Jacqui. I guess that makes 55 now.
ReplyDeleteJohn's final comment on Bob Seger, a true American legend. This has been the greatest moment so far in R3's history. Thanks, everyone.
ReplyDeletethis was the best moment of my life im gonna go out an bittorent the shi* out of bob seegers ablums
ReplyDeleteI got nothin to say, I just wanted the last word.
ReplyDeleteGoodness! I have a lot of catching up to do!
ReplyDeleteThey played Bob Seger at my first prom! I was dating a Latin boy at the time! (What a wild time!)
sixtieth.
ReplyDeleteA disembodied voice told me that Bob Seger would die if we didn't post once comment for every year he's been alive.
ReplyDeleteYesterday I said, to both Glenn and Chris, in earnest, that I didn't know who Bob Seger was. Without the Paint-drawn heart around his bearded face, the name just didn't ring a bell.
