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?

I wouldn’t mind getting an answer to this question as well, but I doubt we ever will.

So far, the music on Spotify has greatly improved.

If the rap music association removes their noise from Spotify, I might sign up.

I’m pretty certain none of these has-beens are making any money on the app. When the heck was the last time you looked up Nils Lofgren on any music service?

And while we’re here, Joni Mitchell wrote about 250 songs and they’re all terrible.

Neil was the least talented of CSNY and they were better off without him. He sang about “rockin in the free world” but now wants to dismiss freedom; and he’s blind and stupid to the reality of the clot shot “needle and the damage done”.

I understand Al Stewart is about to announce that he's pulling his catalog, too, notably Year of the Cat. That'll break Spotify's back.

In fact, we should launch a meme war...who's the next irrelevant rocker to announce their self-immolation? It's a Beaufitul Day? Quill? If there's one thing the leftists hate, it's ridicule.

He’s only know for one song and is not very talented in my opinion anyway! Kinda growls and yells his songs out anyway off key half the time...

These aging has-beens seem to have no problem with non-government censorship.

Alfred Hitler is joining Neil Young and is taking off his Nazi military marches used for the annexation of Poland and the Sudetenland. He blames Spotify as a Jewish conspiracy.
