US EditionProtest Concert in Minneapolis Draws Bruce Springsteen, Tom Morello to First Ave
Springsteen joined Tom Morello at First Avenue to support the National Shutdown protest demanding an end to ICE funding after recent agent-involved killings, organizers said.
- Friday afternoon, Bruce Springsteen made an unadvertised appearance at First Avenue in Minneapolis as a 'very special guest' at a benefit organized by Tom Morello, performing his new song Streets of Minneapolis.
- Coming after months of federal raids and the fatal ICE shootings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good, activists organized a protest demanding `No work` and to `Stop funding ICE`, prompting walkouts and closures.
- He was then joined by Tom Morello and the band for an extended eight-minute `The Ghost of Tom Joad`-themed rendition while audience members chanted `ICE out now`, and Morello teased Springsteen's appearance earlier this week online; CAA, Springsteen's representatives, did not respond to comment.
- The White House called Springsteen's song `irrelevant` and `inaccurate`, and the strike prompted walkouts and closures including 'Grey's Anatomy' production.
- On January 28, Springsteen's release of `Streets of Minneapolis` underscores his ongoing political activism beyond Minneapolis, critics say.
