Set Lusting Bruce: The Springsteen Podcast

Bruce Springsteen is not afraid to take a stand. In response to his cancelling his show on Sunday night due to his concerns about North Carolina passing HB2, which the media are referring to as the “bathroom” law. HB2 — known officially as the Public Facilities Privacy and Security Act, Jesse put together a roundtable of former Set Lusting Bruce guests to talk about Bruce’s decision and the fans reaction. This is a good one! Please share the link on your different social media outlets. Here is a link to the North Carolina Food Bank if you want to make a donation. I would suppose you post #IstandwithBruce but that’s just me. If you want to voice your concern about this law please reach out to the North Carolina Governor Governor Pat McCrory 919.733.5811 116 w jones street Raleigh NC 27601 @GovOfficeNC Ali’s Twitter @a4evanygirl Mitch’s Twitter @mpslater Madison’s Twitter @1MadisonElena Jon’s Twitter @Jon_A_Munson Learn more about your ad choices.
