Bruce Springsteen is currently on tour across the pond right now, and he kicked off his run of UK dates by doubling-down on his distain for his home country’s current administration. “My home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years, is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration,” the Boss told his Manchester crowd. Once word traveled back to the US, Donald Trump took to his Truth Social site to call Springsteen a “dried out prune of a rocker” whose “skin is all atrophied,” which might be one of the most hilariously hypocritical claims ever emitted from the rotten trash chute that is his mouth. Anyway, Trump’s latest hissy fit has already made for good press for Springsteen, and MJ Lenderman tipped his hat Saturday night with a cover of “Darkness On The Edge Of Town” at his Philadelphia show.
