Nils Lofgren announced Saturday that he's removing his music from Spotify to protest vaccine misinformation propagated by Joe Rogan.

The 70-year-old Bruce Springsteen guitarist made the announcement in solidarity with Neil Young, who removed his music from Spotify days earlier, by making his announcement in Young's newsletter.

Joni Mitchell has also followed suit by taking her music off the service in protest.

Why doesn’t someone ask these guys what misinformation are you referring to?

What, exactly, are the lies and misinformation?

What, exactly, was said that is factually incorrect?

So far this just looks like a bunch of washed-up old bags trying to crudely censor Joe Rogan via vague, unproven smears

LOL. Nils Lofgren’s music absolutely sucks so no loss. Plus, I’m sure Neil told he had to do it or he’d lose his job.

I'm going to miss listening to the epic "Nils" album that made it to number #56 on the Billboard Top 200 albums chart back in 1979.

Robert Christgau gave that album a C+

Nils, I hardly knew ye!

BS- they are doing it because they realized after Neil Young did it online searches for him skyrocketed and there has been an increase in his music sales. Joni Mitchell and now this nitwit are hoping for the same thing- more money.

Yet another asterisk on the back of the album cover throws a hissy.

Clapton is totally down with Rogan’s rap.

As far as rock’n’roll musicians go, I’ll stick with Slowhand over the Norwegian Nobody.

The fascists wearing brown shirts and sporting funny little moustaches are coming out of the closet. Prince Harry has the entire ensemble, as I remember.

What lies?

Rogan had the MD/PHD on that helped to invent mRNA.

Can we not talk about something in America now?

$1000 is maybe what he makes a year from Spotify. This is cheap virtue signalling and cheap publicity for these people

Every washed-up performer is getting into the act. What is amazing is their rabid allegiance to these questionable vaccines. They are a bunch of frightened old men and women.

These people really have some extreme cognitive dissonance going on as to their estimated/perceived importance and realty.
