Broadway is reopening in New York, but you’ll need to have received a vaccine approved by the country’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in order to go to a show. Bruce Springsteen will shortly be opening in a one-man show on Broadway, but audience members will be forced to show proof of vaccination to attend – and the AstraZeneca vaccine won’t count! The Telegraph has the story.
The show, billed as “an intimate night with Bruce, his guitar, a piano, and his stories” will run five nights a week at the St James theatre.
“At the direction of New York State, Springsteen on Broadway and the St James Theatre will only be accepting proof of FDA-approved Covid vaccines,” the website says.
Anyone who has received another jab, or is unwilling or unable to have a vaccine will not be allowed to attend.
The news has been met with disappointment just hours north, across the Canadian border, where more than 1.7 million people have had the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Only those who have had a Moderna, Pfizer or Johnson & Johnson vaccine will be allowed to go to the theatre.
Worth reading in full.
The nyc.com website says young children will be exempt from the vaccine rule, but no one else.
The only exception to the above will be for children under the age of 16, who must be accompanied by a vaccinated adult and also must provide proof of at least one of the following:
~ negative antigen Covid test taken within six hours of the performance start time, or
~ negative PCR Covid test taken within 72 hours of the performance start time.

Jesus another casualty of adverse vaccination reactions (no I haven’t been taking any gene therapy treatments). I used to love Springsteen NO LONGER. He can go and stick his concerts, music and his vaccines where the sun don’t shine. KNOB.
Wheres the surprise?
AZ is not FDA approved. It’s unlikely to be FDA approved due to its extreme lack of efficacy vs other vaccines.
You can expect many other countries to not recognise AZ in the future for the simple fact that is really doesn’t work very well.
New York is in a mess. Ignore. And if Bruce had anything to do with this decision he will have lost many loyal fans including me.
I think it was Voltaire who said something like:
“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities”.
Scarily accurate.
This is “at the direction of New York State”. We don’t know if Bruce had any say in the matter.
Of course he has a say. “No” would be a good start.
Appalling behaviour from the artist.
Be more like Ian Brown & Van Morrison, both of whom will never play to segregated audiences. I respect them both immensely.
“At the direction of New York State, Springsteen on Broadway and the St James Theatre will only be accepting proof of FDA-approved Covid vaccines,” the website says.
It doesn’t say “at the direction of New York State and Bruce Springsteen”…
He was only following orders?
GMAFB.
Contrast the attitude of this overrated entertainer to artist Eric Clapton, who eschews any kind of segregated audience.
What a cnut.
I think we can conclude that most celebrities are actually as thick as pig shit. No amount of virtue signalling will protect them from the side effects of the experimental gene therapy. Ah well.
Initially we were “all in it together”, clapping the carers, shopping for shielders etc. Then they brought in masks and suddenly there were “others” who went free-faced. Then they brought in the vax, and we split again, vax heroes and un-stabbed scum. Now, it has to be the “patriot vax” or nothing. See where this is going?
Facilis descensus Averno…
Always thought he was over-rated and his music was crap anyway. Stick it up your rectum Brucey Boy.
Above all, worse than the laws and regulations and nitwit politicians or scientists with sinister and coercive intent, above these are the scum which breathe life into this shit show by managing their little section of the world, like THIS.
makes me sick
Totally love it! Anything that shows the faux-vaccines for what they are is ok with me! The fact that some aged wanker wants to be the vessel to do it, even better. Party on dude!
Yeah, I wouldn’t buy a probably highly overpriced ticket to this dried up, old windbag in the first place.
I wouldn’t be surprised at all if there is something else and much simpler behind this, and if this was just the trial balloon or signal for it.
After all, we and the EU do not recognize the Chinese and Russian ‘vaccines’.
So why shouldn’t the Americans not accept the 3 American ones only?!
I would not be surprised at all now, if the AZ jabbed were treated like the unjabbed by and in the US once it reopened.
So much for the special relationship or a fabulous new trade deal.
The New York/New Jersey (note the Bruce/Broadway proximity) based US pharmafia is just calling the shots here (pun intended), and that, as usual, for a single, everything else overwhelming motive: $$$$s!
Because they can.
Segregation, who would have thought it, or is it only vaccine coercion
And if Bruce Springstein or indeed any other artist continues to perform with these divisive rules in place they are no better than if they were performing in Apartheid south Africa or supporting the Nazi party in discriminating aginst Jews. This is segregation and discrimination. Springstein should refuse to appear under such rules. If he does then we can judge what sort ofperson he is
The good old Beatles would not stand for segregated audiences.
Just another load of BS!
So there are some upsides to getting the vax then.
Bruce is a cuck of epic proportions.
I wouldn’t want to be in an auditorium full of a bunch of sheep shedding spike proteins all over the place anyway.
Fuck the boring old woke twat
There seems to be a lot of people out there who have had 2 jabs and presumably a third to come this winter who are frightened of catching covid.
And I haven’t had any of them and am not in the least bit concerned. Odd that.
Bruce can go fuck himself, sideways, but I did lol at the AZ ban. In the UK we’ve shitloads of that poison with its extended expiry date to get rid of. They are trying to offload it on anyone when really it needs pouring down the sink.
Think of the poor bloomin’ fish!! Or does this chime with TY chucking his face mask in the river? Cripes ‘The River’, we’re back in Bossland!
If these guys fancy rna are safer, they gottta Big shock comin’, man.
Not really newsworthy as it seems this will become the norm for the forseeable future.
That’s ok Bruce. I’m good with not going.
Is this is anything price wise like the last Broadway run for the “man of the people” you will be a lot wealthier watching the same tired act on Netflix.
Disappointed that musicians of all people are happy with medical apartheid. And to think they were the anti “sun city” generation.
BBC
Estimates that 20,000 Scotland fans would travel south for the match have been been described as “very conservative” by a London Assembly member.
A dispersal order has been issued for central London, giving the police extra powers to break up groups of people where they believe their behaviour is causing a nuisance, harassment or distress.
Dear Cressida and your female hating TSG
Very best wishes with your dispersal order
You may find it gets shoved somewhere where the sun doesn’t shine very often, but all the best anyway
Signed
An inmate who is not gruntled
No Brucie bonus with AZ, not that I ever thought he was worth listening to, let alone watch
Fuck You, Bruce!
I always liked the other Bruce better, have to find out what he thinks.
Well – I wasn’t going, anyway. 🙂
But bang goes a reputation in one easy move!
… a quick jump from hero to establishment zero.
He’s been a fake from day one.
Cringeworthy “get together” with Obama made me suspiscious. Another feature of the “pandemic”….finding out people who you thought might just be ok aren’t. Mr Springsteen joins some of my family, all of my neighbours, and pretty much most of the people I know.
James Corden on the other hand; well I always knew that fat bastard was a waste of space so no burst bubble there.
Yes, I am stunned to be siding with Russell Brand, who knew!
It’s not easy. All my U.K. family are on side & never doubted me.
My three overseas siblings, one with a law degree & another a PhD say I’m a conspiracy theorist.
One brother is a cable TV guy & insists he’s right, discounting to zero my 40 years life sciences training & practise.
Not even any inquisitiveness on why I’ve Taken the stance that I have.
I sent them all a two page summary & a dozen or so references.
Since then, crickets.
i don’t suppose you could let us have a copy of that summary and references?
Dr. Yeadon- Thank you so much for all you are doing to get the truth out! You are a true hero. I followed you on twitter and saved about 40 pages of your tweets and I still share them all over the internet.
