Hey guys! I’m launching a brand new show I think you’re really gonna love. It’s called Don’t Play That Song, and it’s all about the music that got banned, censored, or pulled from the radio.

Every week I'll dive into the wild, surprising and sometimes ridiculous reasons why certain songs were silenced. Whether it was a lyric, a message or just a sound that made people nervous. From chart-toppers to forgotten deep cuts, I'll tell you the full story behind the tracks that made someone say, “Don't play that song!"

First episodes are dropping soon, right here on this feed. Hit follow, and get ready for the songs they tried to keep us from hearing.

This week, we’re diving into the Bonfire Tour of 1998. A time when the band was filling amphitheaters, topping charts and making some strangely specific demands behind the scenes. Their tour rider reads like a mix of dorm room comforts and diva-level control. Including cereal specifics, wine on a budget, and a deep need for “vibe”.

This is the story of a band trying to stay grounded while everything around them got bigger, weirder and harder to control.

What do a bomb-sniffing dog, a blender and cinnamon raisin bagels have in common? They’re all part of Bruce Springsteen's backstage world.

This week on They Asked For What? we go backstage on The Rising tour. A post-9/11 revival wrapped in denim, Jersey soul, and rider requests that are equal parts humble and hardcore. No frills. No flair. Just what the Boss needs to do the job.
