Not a real Bruce fan here just thought I would let you all know.

Clarence Clemons suffered what appears to be a stroke over the weekend.

While we wait for an official statement about Clarence Clemons' condition following his stroke, good news has been trickling in. A "close friend" of the E Street Band saxophonist recently told the Springsteen fanzine Backstreets that things that his condition is improving. "Yesterday, it did not look good at all," the source said. "Today . . . miracles are happening. His vital signs are improving. He's responsive. His eyes are welling up when we're talking to him. He was paralyzed on his left side, but now he's squeezing with his left hand. This is the best news we've heard since [the stroke] happened ? it's nothing short of miraculous. The next five days will still be critical. But he's a fighter."

I have a few BS fans that are all upset.

Hate to see the guy sick but he wasn't exactly a healthy dude.

Get well big man.

    I think how many times I have heard his solo in Jungleland in concert and every time it amazes me how powerful and beautiful it is.
