Bruce Springsteen's anti-Trump comments led a Toms River bar owner to cancel a Springsteen tribute band's performance due to potential backlash from his conservative clientele.

In text messages obtained by NJ.com, Rivoli said the concert would have done well “but now because Bruce can’t keep his mouth shut we’re screwed.” Rivoli also texted bassist Guy Fleming, “Whenever the national anthem plays, my bar stands and is in total silence, that’s our clientele. Toms River is red and won’t stand for his bullshit.”
