What's puzzling you is the nature of his game.

I bought Bruce Springsteen a beer at the (divey but great music even by that town's high standards) Green Parrot in Key West in 2019. It was only when I heard his voice as he ordered a bottle of Yuengling at the bar that I was certain who it was and told the bartender, "that's on me." "You don't have to do that," he said, and I replied, "Yes, I do. You music got me through the worst times of my life. It was the exclamation point on the best times of my life. On at least one occasion, your music got me laid. For that alone, I owe you a beer." His wife, Patti Scialfa had come over and heard the last of that, laughed and said, "Honey, let him buy you a beer."
