Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band were AMAZING!! He was on his toes, doing splits, sliding down the runway (banging into the camera!!)… REALLY charming the crowd!! THAT WAS FANTASTIC!! Let’s hope it makes it to YouTube fast!! Bruce was a real character tonight giving the crowd a hilarious comedy routine mixed in with the set. This performance will surely sell his new record, “Working on a Dream.”

Before today’s Super Bowl 43 kicks off, viewers will be treated to a new song by The Smashing Pumpkins in an ad for Hyundai’s new Genesis Coupe.
From Hyundai’s press release:
Hyundai Motor America enlisted Smashing Pumpkins lead singer Billy Corgan and drummer Jimmy Chamberlin to provide a rock soundtrack befitting the all-new Genesis Coupe in its debut national advertising campaign. The Smashing Pumpkins band members and cellist Yo-Yo Ma will each perform songs to accompany uniquely edited 30-second spots, tailored to their brand of music by editor Hank Corwin. Hyundai selected the Smashing Pumpkins spot to be featured immediately before the kick off of Super Bowl XLIII on Sunday, February 1, 2009. Hyundai has a total of five 30-second spots – three during NBC’s “Kick-Off Show” and two in-game spots during the Super Bowl broadcast.
The new song is titled “FOL” and has not been released in any format prior to be featured in this commercial.
