A New Jersey bar owner canceled a Bruce Springsteen cover band's performance after The Boss criticized Donald Trump during his European tour. The owner deemed the show "too risky" due to the area's conservative base. The band suggested playing under a different name and excluding Springsteen songs, but the owner refused to pay for a non-Springsteen show. Despite conflicting reports, the band ultimately decided to play at a different venue due to safety concerns. This incident is not the first time the bar owner's conservative views have caused controversy.
