Bryan Adams cancels Mississippi show, citing state's new law

Orlando sentinel ^ | 4/11/16

[USCG SimTech]

$100 tax imposed for each B.A. song sold in-state and for each song procured anywhere by MS residents.

I’ve heard of him, but I don’t know any of his songs. If I was as unknown as he is, I wouldn’t want to start cancelling payment possibilities because I don’t like the politics of a certain state. But I’m sure Adams has no problem performing in states where partial-birth abortions are performed.

The most relevant thing he ever did was do a couple of lead-ins for Tina Turner. He did appear with her and performed a duet together during one of her tours. I remember watching a couple of these duets and he was pathetic in his attempt to outdo Tina and he started screeching, his face looked like it was in agony.

Bryan Adams rocks! He should shut up and sing.

Another snotty, arrogant Canadian
Never had a problem with Canada until it gave sanctuary to the cowardly, anti-war, draft-dodging scumbags back in the 60s.
And I didn't have a problem with the draft-dodgers leaving the USA - good riddance MFers. They should have NEVER been allowed to return.

[Celerity]

By his own philosophy, shouldn’t he be REQUIRED to perform ?

If anyone in his audience is gay, and he’s not performing for them because of his beliefs,

You see where I’m going with this.

[Robert DeLong]

Hopefully you were there to see Tina, I sure as heck wouldn’t have paid to see Bryan. LOL

[skeeter]

Put Bryan Adams down as another guy who doesn’t mind some hairy ape using the bathroom right alongside your daughter.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

I’d bet the farm that no one is buying tickets for this has-been’s tour so he is being forced to cut dates. So he dresses it up as some political statement when the reality is that no one wants to see him.

As an aside, Bryan Adams tours in Dubai. The penalty for being caught in a homosexual act in Dubai is death.

[usafa92]

Has he even been relevant since he summer of 69?

[Sam Gamgee]

It’s called freedom of conscience, Bryan. Something that has been almost destroyed in Canada.

[MrBambaLaMamba]

[SaveFerris]

Yep

You couldn’t pay me to see Joan Hussein Jett, either.

[mrsmel]

We need to turn this back on these people-what they are essentially doing is supporting pedophiles, and we need to start making that clear.

[mumblypeg]

His biggest hit was ‘Run to You.’
It’s a song about adultery.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that. /s

[mrsmel]

Exactly. He’ll probably get more publicity from this stunt of basically supporting pedophiles than he’s had in years.

[Hatteras]

Haha, the 69 in the song wasn’t the year. Just sayin’...

[McCarthysGhost]

I think it’s important to point out that the law is not about denying service to gay couples but preventing Christians from be forced to participate in gay “marriage”. Has absolutely nothing to do with gay couples.

[dfwgator]

He can go back to Canada, and take Justin Bieber with him.
