  "summary": "Zach Bryan performed at Gillette Stadium for the second night of his With Heaven on Tour. He broke the venue's attendance record with 73,538 fans in attendance, according to Gillette Stadium's post on X.\n\nBryan wore a shirt that read \"Free Palestine\" during his shows at the stadium. This occurred after another musician, Macklemore, was prohibited from performing at Gillette Stadium for making pro-Palestinian statements. According to the Jerusalem Post, Macklemore was set to open for Ed Sheeran but was dropped from the tour following his comments.\n\nBryan's shirt also featured the text \"An Appeal to Heaven\" and did not have a Palestinian flag. The context behind Bryan's decision to wear the shirt is not fully known.",
