Other shots showed the actor enjoying the concert at Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens the day before and posing in front of the stage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Myers appeared to have a blast at the show, which featured The Strokes, TV on the Radio, Beach House, and Fcukers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;\ud83d\ude4cNOT WORTHY \ud83d\ude4c,&#8221; Myers began his Instagram caption before thanking TV on the Radio and Adebimpe for having him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He also gave shoutouts to Beach House and The Strokes, writing that the latter were &#8220;\ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25.&#8221; Myers noted that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance to introduce The Strokes, before ending his post with the hashtags &#8220;#voteinnovember&#8221; and &#8220;#fightfascism.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;What a stupid shirt \ud83d\ude02,&#8221; one person declared in the comments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Come on mike!!! Not you too,&#8221; another said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Love your acting Mike but respectfully disagree with your political beliefs,&#8221; a third noted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Others were fans of the shirt choice, however.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;This is what I&#8217;m talking about Mike! \u2764\ufe0f,&#8221; another replied.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Another stated, &#8220;I love that shirt\ud83d\udc10.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Myers has become increasingly outspoken about political issues in recent years. The Canadian actor made headlines in March 2025 when he appeared on Saturday Night Live wearing a &#8220;Canada Is Not for Sale&#8221; shirt, a response to President Donald Trump&#8217;s repeated comments about Canada becoming the 51st U.S. state.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He later appeared alongside Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney in a campaign ad ahead of Canada&#8217;s 2025 federal election.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Myers wasn&#8217;t the only person at the Queens show mixing music and politics.
