Jersey Shore bar cancels Springsteen cover band over The Boss' anti-Trump rants

Bruce Springsteen just got canceled — at the Jersey Shore.

A band that specializes in covering The Boss’ music decided to cancel a performance at a nearby bar close to his New Jersey home following a disagreement with the bar’s owner over the artist’s anti-Trump remarks, as reported.

No Surrender, a New Jersey-based Springsteen tribute band that has been playing together for 20 years and features nine members, was set to perform at Riv’s Toms River Hub on May 30. However, the “I’m on Fire” singer had just begun his European tour, which included several on-stage criticisms of President Trump, reported NJ Advance Media.

“At that point, there were negative vibes about the whole thing,” Hobicorn said. “There was definitely a safety concern,” he said.

Rivoli, though, insisted the cover band could have played.

“As of (Wednesday), they could have played as No Surrender,” Rivoli told the outlet.

“I think many people who support my views might not have attended, but I could have been mistaken. It’s uncertain. You can’t predict what people will do.”

Toms River bar and restaurant joints have previously sparked backlash for their conservative slant.

Aqua Blu Kitchen & Cocktails in Toms River put a hamburger on its menu dedicated to the right-wing extremist group the Proud Boys in January, leading to a massive online backlash and an apology from the owner.

Springsteen — who was born in Long Branch and raised in Freehold — lambasted Trump’s administration as “corrupt, incompetent and treasonous” while kicking off the European leg of his “Land of Hope and Dreams” tour in Manchester, England, last week.

Last Friday, Trump slammed the musician, calling him “Highly Overrated” and “dumb as a rock” for going “to a Foreign Country to speak badly about the President of the United States.”

“Never liked him, never liked his music, or his Radical Left Politics and, importantly, he’s not a talented guy — Just a pushy, obnoxious JERK, who fervently supported Crooked Joe Biden, a mentally incompetent FOOL, and our WORST EVER President, who came close to destroying our Country,” he posted to Truth Social.

Instead of playing The Riv’s Toms River Hub, No Surrender will play Headliner Oasis in Neptune Township on May 30, according to the outlet.
