NEW YORK (AP) – A filmmaker is looking for Bruce Springsteen stories from the fan point of view. Producer Svana Gisla is working on a documentary called “Springsteen and I.” Gisla is looking for fans to make short films about what Springsteen means to them, whether they’re longtime fans or just hearing Springsteen for the first time. Fans can submit films under five minutes to www.SpringsteenandI.com through November 29.

CCR FRONTMAN WRITING AUTOBIOGRAPHY

NEW YORK (AP) – John Fogerty is ready to tell the stories of what really went on inside Creedence Clearwater Revival and his battle with his record label that went all the way to the Supreme Court. Fogerty has signed a deal with Little, Brown and Company for his autobiography. Fogerty says he wants to tell the story of how he fought hard to maintain his artistic integrity in the face of opposing forces. Fogerty’s book will come out in 2014. In the meantime, he will put out an album next year called “Wrote A Song For Everyone.”

STONES GRUDGINGLY OBSERVE 50TH ANNIVERSARY

 

NEW YORK (AP) – The Rolling Stones weren’t going to do anything for their 50th anniversary, but Keith Richards says they felt pressured to do it. Richards says the Stones are famous for not obeying the rules, but they became aware that a lot of people were counting on them. They will play five shows in London and outside New York in the coming weeks, and they released a compilation with two new songs this week. Mick Jagger says they had to do something or the BBC would have done a dull film about them. Richards says it’s “impossible” for it to have been 50 years, because in his words, “I’m only 38.”
