Bruce Springsteen is sending a message with his latest tour. When the 76-year-old New Jersey rock icon, known universally as The Boss, kicked off his Land of Hope & Dreams American Tour last week, he did so pointedly in Minneapolis to honor the city’s anti-ICE protests.
“This tour is going to be political and very topical about what’s going on in the country,” he told the Minnesota Star Tribune. “Minneapolis and St. Paul, that was the place that I wanted to begin it, and I wanted to end it in Washington.”
