Take heed @springsteen. You may lose your entire original fan base if you haven't lost them already. It blows my mind that you would say bye bye to baby boomers because we have the most money to dispose of. SMARTEN UP!
Mick Jagger: Fans Don’t Want Political Lectures at Concerts
Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger pushed back against the trend of musicians delivering political speeches from the stage, following Bruce Springsteen’s recent anti-Trump remarks.
Speaking in a Saturday interview on The New York Times’ podcast, Jagger said fans come to shows for an escape:
“The bottom line of my thing really is that my job in the live music world is for those people that come is to have the best time they possibly can. For two hours or whatever it is, to forget all their problems and the problems of the world… You don’t want to lecture them.”
He added that “Nobody wants to hear a whole song about politics.” (Video: AI)
Do you agree with Jagger that concerts should be an escape from politics? Or do you think artists should use their platform to speak out?
@JeffBezos care to explain?
Jobs mean ID…ID makes it real easy to get registered to vote…
Amazon allegedly filed a total of 187,769 H-1B petitions between 2022 and 2026. This makes Amazon the largest single sponsor of H-1B visas in the United States during this period.
I’d truly love to a patriot like @DataRepublican use their superpowers to dig a bit more into Amazon and its work to undermine Americans replacing its citizens w cheap foreign labor and illegals🙏
What makes this story horrendous is the fact @MassGovernor used the excuse that it was too expensive. Well maura you have no problems throwing huge money at the illegals. You need to go NOW.
Good morning to everyone in Massachusetts who agrees that this story everyone should share.
While our governor decided Massachusetts didn’t need to show up at the America 250 Fair on the National Mall, one proud Bay Stater refused to let our state be missing from this historic celebration.
Donna Festinger paid her own way to Washington, D.C. and has been personally staffing the Massachusetts booth so visitors wouldn’t walk by an empty exhibit from the birthplace of American freedom. She’s out there representing all of us with heart, pride, and zero political games.
It’s outrageous that the governor didn’t see the importance of representing the constituents here in our state at a once-in-a-generation event honoring 250 years of America. But Donna stepped up when leadership didn’t, and she’s saving the day for Massachusetts.
Thank you, Donna. You’re a true patriot and a shining example of what it means to love this state and this country.
