I never liked him and his phony blue-collar crap. Does he still do concerts, and if so, why hasn't he suffered the Dixie Chicks' fate with his blue-collar fans?

He's never hid his politics. He was writing anti-Reagan songs and making speeches to that effect sine the early 80s.

I don't think he has carried any "blue collar" fans with him since the 1970's. He has a lot of limousine liberal fans who describe the preachy multimillionaire singer gouging fans with extreme ticket prices as an "everyman" entertainer.

I was recently reading that Springsteen concert tickets were going for over $300 face value. His supposed audience of blue collar fans can't afford to go to one of his concerts. His latest concert is not selling out because the only people who can afford it are the elitist snobs who really don't like his music anyway.
