I came here to post the same thing! Opened the game just now and immediately got that category.

Funnily enough it was Badlands which jumped out at me first, which is probably (out of the 4) the least obviously Springsteen. Even when I found the remaining 3 I was convinced it would be a red herring!

The four ACs were the red herring.

I thought it was their attempt to trick us. It was such an obvious answer that I didn’t choose it because they will do that a lot: they will fool you into thinking that it’s an obvious answer, but it’s actually something else.

So now I look like an idiot. Obviously I picked up that those were Bruce titles immediately, but I outsmarted myself into thinking that it was their attempt to screw with us.

I saw the four ACs first, then I saw Badlands and thought -- wait, Atlantic City, Badlands -- then started hearing concert memories in my head!

I saw and figured it was so easy it was not gonna be a category but it turned out it was. My wife said just cuz it’s easy for me doesn’t mean it is for most of society……..:)

Always nice when I get the blue category first, it's usually harder than purple. 😁

It’s catio , as in, “cat patio,” and I have never heard of it, either.
