Not with Bruce yet, but Bette Midler released an update of a Woody Gutherie song www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBj5... Jesse Welles singer of anti-rightwing songs was on Stephen Colbert open.spotify.com/playlist/0Vi... Here's "This Machine Fights republican Fascists" open.spotify.com/playlist/0Vi...

Technically its Tom Morello's gig with The Boss as extra special guest.

TOTALLY AGREE‼️

Would love to see Sir Paul with Springsteen.

👍

Word for word? Really? Is this a copy and paste thing I wasn’t aware of?

The evening could be hosted by Colbert.

I saw a cool video clip of the Circle Jerks taking down white supremacist nazi punks at a recent show in Vegas.

They HAVE. They mostly DO (have a conscience). NO, most of them do not. Also, people have to eat and have a porch/stage upon which to be, changing the world, song by song. 😊💕

I disagree, none of them are very good imho. He's got plenty of big names on the list already!

Public Enemy was on stage with Bruce, not too long ago. They've been fighting the power for decades.

Presale sold out with an 80k wait g list for a 25k venue…when Bruce announced it Wednesday night he suggested it would be at Nats Park. It seems they should have secured a larger venue. And Bruce is not alone or struggling in any way.

Good because it feels like we're on the road to nowhere

Where's the Black artist to be invited because you know who coined the phrase "Power to the People" Black People

Martina McBride put out a statement saying it was presented as a state fair type gig. They are all pulling out as they see what their management signed them up for

I was thinking the one who is still alive.

😂😂😂

I'm hoping to hear: "...NONE of the above, fuck it and cut the cord! Lights out! FUCK TRUMP! Turn THAT SHIT ON!"

@greenday.bsky.social Would love to see you there!

These mother fuckers would have to live under a rock not to know what they were agreeing to. They pulled out bc the temperature around the event was heating up. They should BEG to join on with Springsteen for a reduced price since they got caught being assholes for a moment.

This set list is great and im sure they are still adding people Power To The People share.google/RSArdgUfYPPY...

Im not sure any of the people on that Bill would be considered Big Names. If they had joined Bruce first, people would mock him for not getting artists.

I used to work at a radio station, 99X in Atlanta — so I was blessed with the opportunity (and access) to take some pretty incredible photos / videos.

NICE!!!

Yes! Line up (including Bruce) looks so stacked for Morello’s Power to the People festival. Plus, he’s ensuring VIP ticket sales go to VoteRiders. Dude puts his money where his mouth is.

None of the people playing at trumps wankfest could reasonably be described as "big names" They aren't fit to collect tickets at a Springsteen gig

💯

100%! Was wondering the same thing. Where are other big music names to stand up for our freedom??! I'm so disgusted by the cowardice & neo-fascism of today's adults!

You copy/paste a MAGA tweet in here, why? You don't seem like one to be fair....

It's Morellos festival, Bruce is one of the guests

Madonna?

I think they all knew it was a political event when they signed up. What they didn’t expect was the backlash from their fans. Granted Donold has become more and more insane over the past few months-but they all knew it was his event.

I... In what universe was that NOT going to be political?

👍

Excellent idea!

I’ll just follow you rather than liking your every post.

It COULD be, however, that the entire event was pitched to the artists as non-partisan, and disclaimed as a Trump thing. Which is what Martina McBride alluded to in her statement? But, yeah. The agents must have had known the partisan nature of it.

Aside from Martina, none of the cancels would make the cut for the Power Festival which has A team bands

I don't think he's into tripe, do you.

Please!!! Anyone who doesn't realize that everything Trump is political. Look what he did with the Memorial Day speech. Some of these artists are either braindead or disingenuous. Really, anything Trump needs to be sanctioned.

agreed! Bruce deserves a hero's welcome i went and purchased all of his albums i did not already have as my way of supporting him and at the very least it's something we ALL can do to support his efforts!

Can I interest you in a bridge?

There is NO second chance

Springsteen will attract much better talent as he had done in the past.

Go silent, hardly anyone who have used their voice more, stay in your lane hater

Yesterday the perpetrators of the exposed plot in Austria during her last tour were found guilty. You can Google that. She does enough; we know where she stands.

And you’re headlining where? and given how many millions?

Lonely? With those crowds?

Bruce has the entire country on his shoulders. But that’s okay. Folk heroes are powerful.

You're a collator. What's that? Lonely slog for Bruce?!! Hardly.

I doubt Bruce will have any problems getting musicians to show up for 10/3.

F Bruce!

Now or never!

Green Day.

Pretending they didn't know.

Disturbed Funeral Portrait In This Moment Shinedown Three Days Grace Five Finger Deathpunch

But none of those people who canceled are big names--not in the same ballpark with The Boss. Bruce can take it.

These ‘artists’ baling on the POTUS Party aren’t the big names you are looking for.

I'm just amazed that they thought it would be anything BUT partisan. In what part of Trumps history has he brought people together? When has he ever ignored his petty grievances with blue states and helped the people living there? All he's ever done is divide us so I ask, what were they thinking?

They are eating the dogs They are eating the cats

If they didn’t know it would be political then they need to be doing some serious 🤔 about their level of discernment.

All the ‘artists’ claiming they were misinformed are full of BS. Any event associated/given/supported by trump is a political stunt. And anyone who has paid attention knows it. They joined on for the money & because their popularity has faded. And now they’re whining.

Many were told it was non partisan. They don't want to stand up and be counted, they won't pick a side.

I dunno. A surviving Milli Vanilli / Foo Fighters colab might be something I'd like to see

When are we going to see some of the big names on current charts show up at these shows? I see lots of old-timers and indie acts, but no top 10 acts.

Carry on.

Yes. But it is actually Tom Morello's festival. Bruce is a special guest. Give credit where credit is due.

It’s too bad Ticketmaster and resale bots have made getting tickets impossible. Today was presale and within 50 minutes all the tickets were gone and we already showing up on resale sites for 2x more than face value.

Yes.

What a great idea!

Lonely slog? Hardly think so.

These are some top notch acts and those who were going to perform in DC we second rate at best except for Martina McBride.

There ARE THREE hold outs. For shame!

#1 Did not know it was political 😮 #2 invited by the president to 😆 #3 bands of no significance 👎🏽 No! stay away from Bruce, you be too stupid, really

They already have a way better lineup than these has-beens

It’s Tom Morello’s Power to the People festival. Not Bruce’s. It’s tiresome that people act like protest music doesn’t count if it’s not Taylor Swift or some washed up rock group from the 80s. Morello, Dropkick, Killer Mike - all better activists than any billionaire mega-entertainers.

none of those artisits are in the same league.

Lonely slog? He is selling out all over the country.

It's not Bruce's concert. Tom Morello is the organizer, but Bruce is playing...should be a great show.

I must have missed the memo

QtipsANON. Who will be playing st Trump's 250th.

2/2 how could you not know it was political?? #callmecynical

I am surprised they didn't know with all that's been going on, but at least they are doing the right thing. And Bruce has got some pretty powerful artists and bands going here...heck...Foo Fighters, Jack Black and some others I don't recognise, but supposed to be big. It takes time to build
