http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/7503651/bruce-springsteen-donald-trump-pittsburgh-concertStepping up to the microphone at Consol Energy Center, Springsteen said: "Someone gave me a copy of the Constitution of the United States. It does say 'F--- Trump' on the front of it. And this was his request," he said.
Springsteen proceeded to play an acoustic version of "Long Walk Home," a track from his 2007 album, Magic.
This wasn't the first time Springsteen was handed a copy of the Constitution. A similar thing happed at the United Center in Chicago after The Boss went crowd-surfing, and a fan slipped one in his pocket.
Oh, how I hope YUGE! Boss fan and Trump toadie Chris Christie was there.

(80,708 posts)I remember how he played the "vote for change" concerts back in 2004 with other progressive acts like R.E.M., Conor Oberst, etc.

He pulled some guy out of the audience on to the stage. The guy was holding a Bush sign and Bruce started yelling "Cast the demon out! Cast the demon out!" and put his hand on the guys head. Which inspired the guy to tear his Bush sign in two and yell "I'm saved!"
I'm sure it was a lot more fun to see than my description of it is.
