If he’s really on the hook, and he needs to fulfill the terms of the contract, then he should just show up and play twinkle twinkle little star for 2 hours straight, or something to that effect.

If the jerk in the White House renamed it the Hitler Center, it seems to me that he would have fundamentally changed the nature of my contract in that I would now be seen as endorsing Hitler. Same thing here.

Lolz.
Yeah… Cause that’s how you deal with musicians.. threat of lawsuit.
Stupidest timeline

If you sue one musician then you must sue all the musicians who canceled their performance at the Kennedy Center. Otherwise it seems like an easy case for the musician to win. I’m not a lawyer though.

As a musician, the current economy, lack of AI regulations, and just state of the world have caused me to lose significant income. So can I sue Trump and his goons?

Kennedy center? Don’t they mean TRUMP kennedy center ?

Music industry person here. No performer in their right mind would enter a contractual agreement without a mutual cancelation policy.
Unless their agent/manager is useless this is all hot air. Not saying it couldn’t waste time in court but it’s the same semantic as his other fafo howdareyouisms.

Sounds like a First Amendment issue. Is this administration actively suppressing civilians’ constitutional rights? It’s a rhetorical question. I want them to admit it in a public court on the record.

I’m no Tom Cruise fan, but does anybody think he turned down a Kennedy Centers honor because he was busy?
