Republican Springsteen Fans Are Torn About Which Boss to Serve

Great column by former Washington Post columnist Sam Fortier!

 

“We’re watching Donald Trump on a revenge tour, and as incredible as it sounds, it is not out of the realm of possibility that somebody could be spotted at this concert and be told they don’t need to show up for work on Monday,” said Doug Heye, a GOP consultant and perhaps the best-known Republican fan of Bruce Springsteen in the city.

 

But also:

 

Underneath the warmth of anticipation in the pit line was some of the same anger Springsteen channels onstage — and they focused on something the musician hadn’t said much about.

 

Many in line paid $500 or more for these tickets. They bemoaned the Department of Justice’s recent settlement with Live Nation, the parent company of Ticketmaster, which stopped what could’ve led to a breakup of the company under antitrust law. They bemoaned Springsteen’s participation in “dynamic pricing,” in which Live Nation’s algorithms used the tour’s popularity to drive the cost of floor seats into the thousands. They contrasted the coldness of the corporation with the warmth of Springsteen, negotiating the private tension of their own fandom.
