Go, Jersey

Working for Bruce Springsteen Steve%20Bruce.jpg

or working for David Chase Steve%20Chase.jpg

Little Miami Steve Van Zandt found one thing particularly amazing: "Just seeing New Jersey become fashionable twice in a lifetime."

Van Zandt was here today to flog a VH-1documentary series, Seven Ages of Rock, premiering in October.

Who cares about that? The big question: "What about the end of The Sopranos?"
Answer: "David Chase was never going to play that Hollywood game of fraudulent closure. ...I thought the ending was brillilant."

Besides putting NJ at the top of the culture, Little Miami said, both Chase and Springsteen are successful because they are "crazy, uncompromising and singular in their vision."
