"I can't sleep because of the pain": Eric Clapton speaks more truth about his injuries (and calls for kindness all around), while Springsteen limps across the country, key bandmates down with "COVID"

Too bad for all of us that Clapton is a rarity among celebrities, most of whom have been as clueless and self-righteous in promoting "vaccination" (& the other "COVID measures") as "The Boss"

Bruce Springsteen E Street Band Members Health Condition: 2 Musicians Tested Positive for COVID

February 11, 2023

Bruce Springsteen has been traveling across the United States for his current tour, but some of his E Street band members have encountered a health problem after testing positive for COVID-19; how are they doing and is their condition going to affect the upcoming shows?

According to Kiro 7, the legendary musician made his return to Dallas, Texas, for the first time in seven years. However, there were E Street members who were not present at the show and many fans were clueless and confused, leading them to ask on social media.

One user took to Twitter to ask Stevie Van Zandt why he didn't attend the show, to which the musician responded with, "Sorry folks. Covid.

The Dallas Morning News reported that Springsteen addressed the issue on stage, saying there members of his group that weren't able to perform that evening, but he assured fans they would be giving the best show they have ever seen before performing "Out in the Streets" [sic].

Aside for Van Zandt, other members who were absent include saxophonist Jake Clemons, bassist Gary Tallent, percussionist Anthony Almonte, and more.

Bruce Springsteen Returns To Broadway - With A Vaccine Mandate

June 7, 2021

The Boss is back on Broadway - and way ahead of the pack.

Bruce Springsteen will be the first act in a Broadway theater at full capacity since the industry shut down last March. The show, a concert-memoir titled Springsteen on Broadway, will start performances on June 26, more than a month before the next reopening marquee. It will also be a revival of sorts, bringing the famed New Jerseyan back to the Rialto after he shattered box office records in 2018.

His is also the first show to announce a Covid vaccine mandate for audience members. Some, like Hamilton, will require vaccines for its cast and crew. But Springsteen is setting a precedent many industry players seem ready to follow.

“Vaccines should be mandatory for everybody,” said producer Barry Diller in an earlier interview. “It’s crazy to think otherwise. The only way that any of us are going to get protection against each other or feel protected, is if you’re vaccinated and the person you’re inches away from is vaccinated.”

Someone with the chops should mark Springsteen’s collaboration, and the cowardice of rockers overall, by revising “Born to Run,” and call it, “Born to Run (Scared).”
