Springsteen goes on attack during Broadway show, calls Trump's immigration policies 'inhumane'

For 146 straight shows on Broadway, Bruce Springsteen has stuck to a script, playing basically the same set each night at the Walter Kerr Theatre in New York.

But on Tuesday night, the New Jersey rock legend veered off that script to denounce the "senior people in government" who have enacted immigration policies that have led to thousands of children being separated from their families, according to the Guardian.

The number of people that he’s driven to drive icepicks in their ears to end the suffering is probably up in the millions.

The main reason why my hearing is shot.

despised him from the very beginning


Me,too.

When he was starting out, imitating Bob Dylan, the real Bob Dylan was at a restaurant table. As Springsteen went by in the aisle he grabbed his arm.
Dylan: “They tell me you’re the new me. I’m already me so I suggest you start being you.”

LIke Neil Young, Springsteen put out some great music in the 70’s.

Since then, not so much.

Lets get this straight. Noone ever ever called him “the boss”. That was all record company marketing baloney to sell his crappy Born In The Usa album.

So what?

Let him say what he wants.

The FBI/CIA have destroyed our republic. We don’t care. We hate celebrities & lefty talking points about immigrants.

I don't remember the singer from Herman's Hermits ever mentioning Springsteen.

I enjoyed it the time when Brit Hume refered to Springsteen as Bruce Stringspeen.
