Not two posts ago I was talking about the odds of Bruce Springsteen inviting some special guest or other on stage this Friday, and Sheryl Crow beats him to it.

This is not - repeat not - to say that Clapton, or anyone, is going to sit in with The Boss and the E Street Band at BankAtlantic Center. I don't know one way or the other. It's just that Bruce is known for bringing out musicians he admires, and, heck, with Clapton in town ahead of his Monday night show at Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, well, who knows ... I'm not lobbying here, just talking ... really.
