And in the former Great Britain

(Via the Drudge Report)

A Bruce Springsteen concert ends early because of restrictions on noise.

And in a lovely piece of irony, Steven Van Zandt, bandmate of the rather liberal Springsteen, says the UK has become a police state. I don't know van Zandt's leanings, but it sounds to me like the Boss got a taste of what he's been asking for.
