B Street Band/FacebookYet another performer has quit the upcoming Donald Trump inauguration festivities. The B Street Band, a well-known Bruce Springsteen cover band, has dropped out of a planned performance at the Garden State Inaugural Gala, and has made it clear they've done so because of Springsteen's political opinions. Previously, the Broadway singer Jennifer Holliday dropped out of a Trump inauguration performance and apologized to fans for agreeing to it in the first place after widespread pushback. The B Street Band released a statement saying it was quitting the gig out of respect for the Boss and his band: "With deepest apologies to our fans and the New Jersey Inaugural Ball committee, the B Street Band is withdrawing from performing at this year’s inauguration Gala. "Our decision is based SOLELY on the respect and gratitude we have for Bruce and the E Street Band. "Bruce’s music has been the foundation of our livelihood.
