Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band have been slotted to perform during Super Bowl XLIII, next February 1st in lovely Tampa, Florida. Take it away, Reuters:

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will play the half-time slot at the Super Bowl in Tampa, Florida, snagging the spot at the most-watched musical event of the year, according to the organizers.

This year, more than 148 million viewers in the U.S. watched Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers play at the championship game of American football, the National Football League said on Sunday.

This will mark the first Super Bowl performance for the Boss, and also the first football game ever watched by half the End Hits staff. Also, write this shit down, this Super Bowl will definitely feature the St. Louis Rams and the Houston Texans. It's a lock.

Hey, I've seen a Super Bowl before. I think. Maybe? That's the game with all the commercials, right?
