He’s toast.
Thanks for outing him Dana.
Jason Aldean is Fake Country
What is UFC 216?
Ruh roh.
EXCERPT...
White says Aldean’s people turned down the offer — saying he was shaken up from the shooting and might never perform live again.
White says he stressed that the survivors who would be attending UFC 216 were shot while watching Aldean perform and it would mean a lot to them ... and the city of Las Vegas. Still, he declined.
Instead, Aldean flew to NYC and performed on Saturday Night Live at the same time as UFC 216. Needless to say, White is pissed.
“His image was more important then coming back to Vegas and playing for the people who are his fans and who got shot watching him play,” White says.
“Country music” sucks, and it looks like most of these guys that have opened their mouths since last Sunday are just a bunch of pussies in stupid looking hats.
Aldean is all done
I guess the country stars thought themselves too important to take on the role of playing the anthem in front of survivors and first responders. Could they be a part of . . . HOLLYWOOD???
I don’t think Everlast, which agreed to perform the anthem, is a country band.

PING!
Careful what you believe from Dana White.
As he had already booked snl he could not be in two places at one time and therefore had to turn down Vegas event.
I wonder if White contacted Big Kenny and John Rich (Big & Rich). They performed “God Bless America” at the ill-fated concert. I don’t think they would be ones to shirk this opportunity.
Who is Dana White and why does he get to call the shots?
Does anyone know if he paid a visit to the injured?
I said the day after, that, although I don’t know him well, I wouldn’t be shocked to hear a few “ we need better gun laws” type statements from him.
SNL though. The desire to be with the popular kids is strong.
None of us here knows how we would feel, were it us performing instead, at least I do not.
It may take him quite a while to deal with that many reminders of how close he came to dying. Of course, it would have been the ‘right, nice and noble’ thing to do, but trauma doesn’t always follow the expectations of your base.
When Ariana Grande had her concert bombed earlier this year in Manchester, England, she wanted to cancel her tour, but was talked into returning to England and doing it anyway.
It’s not something most people would ever be prepared for.
Maybe it’s just way too soon for Jason Aldean to return to the scene with all those visual reminders of that moment.
Because he wants to embrace the suck for fame and profit...and those he makes league with will cut him down as soon as he steps out of line.
Jason Aldean preforming on the Trump hating SNL shows his true colors.
I'm sure this was booked months in advance before Dana White asked Aldean to preform at the UFC anyway.In my view, Dana is just like Democrat. Never let a good crisis go to waste. he's getting tons of free publicity bashing Jason Aldean.
Holy shoot. I just defended him on the other thread. I take it back.
If this is true, that he turned down this event for a Surprise Get Cold Open for the holier than thou leftists at SNL, then I will remove him from my playlists.
For real, that was a career poor decision.
He bailed when the shooting started, then tweeted that he was ok. My impression was that he was a total coward.
