....rocker Bryan Adams is canceling a performance this week in Mississippi, citing the state's new law that allows religious groups and some private businesses to refuse service to gay couples.

Adams said in a statement Sunday night that he was canceling a show Thursday at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi..

Bye

[Buckeye McFrog]

Another snotty, arrogant Canadian trying to tell the neighbours how to conduct their affairs.

[Theodore R.]

I’ve never heard of him: don’t know many current “singers”.

[Hoodat]

He sucked in the 80s, and he still sucks now.

[howlinhound]

That washed-up noise maker won’t be missed anywhere.

[1217Chic]

Good riddance....

[JohnBrowdie]

I didn’t know bryan adams was still alive.

[rdl6989]

He hasn’t been relevant since about 1986.

[Vendome]

Couldn’t sell enough tickets to cover costs....

[Jane Austen]

The poor guy is trying to get free publicity. I have never heard of him.

[stockpirate]

He was never relevant not even in 1986.

[SaveFerris]

Oh darn, you beat me to it!!!

There must be at least a thousand washed-up former 1980s and 1990s stars who get hyped constantly, but haven’t been relevant in twenty years. It’s amazing to me that characters like this keep getting brought up. It’s like John Cougar or Heart or Little River Band....it’s over.

Don’t you love how these libs love to punish their fans by cancelling concerts in states that pass a law that goes against their feelings.

I see it as a blatant disrespect towards their fans.

[Responsibility2nd]

What a “Look at Me” Attention whore.

“See? I’m just like Bruce Springsteen!”

Fact is - Adams couldn’t sell even 75 tickets at some 4th rate venue in Biloxi, so rather than just cancel a show no one was coming to anyway -

He pull this queer stunt.

[rktman]

They passed a law making it illegal for bree-ann adams to perform in MS? That’s weird. Guess it ‘cuts like a knife’.

[SaveFerris]

Probably - or barely did with no profit.

Now, he thinks he’s a champion liberal like Bruce Hussein Obamasteen.

[Crucial]

I didn’t know MS did this.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Now now....”Run to you” was a jam!
