Bruce Springsteen has been vocal about his anti-ICE stance in recent months, telling them to "get the fuck out of Minneapolis" at Asbury Park's Light Of Day WinterFest, releasing an anti-ICE protest song called "Streets Of Minneapolis," and performing it at Tom Morello's benefit in that city. Now, he's announcing a tour "in celebration and in defense of America," and it'll kick off in Minneapolis.
With his E Street Band, the Boss embarks on the trek at the end of next month. "We are living through dark, disturbing and dangerous times, but do not despair — the cavalry is coming," he says in a statement. He continues:
Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band will be taking the stage this spring from Minneapolis to California to Texas to Washington, D.C. for the Land of Hope And Dreams American Tour. We will be rocking your town in celebration and in defense of America — American democracy, American freedom, our American Constitution and our sacred American dream — all of which are under attack by our wannabe king and his rogue government in Washington, D.C. Everyone, regardless of where you stand or what you believe in, is welcome — so come on out and join the United Free Republic of E Street Nation for an American spring of Rock 'n' Rebellion! I’ll see you there!
