New for 2023: Video for 1984; new entry for 2022
1974: A planned gig opening for Dr. John in San Diego is cancelled due to low ticket sales.
1975: Bruce and the E Street Band play their second of back-to-back nights at Kutztown State College, where Bruce debuts his cover of “Carol.”
1981: Bruce is sick, causing his scheduled River Tour show in Cincinnati to be postponed.
1984: Bruce’s third and final night in Toronto on the Born in the U.S.A. Tour is a great one, featuring the live debut of “My Father’s House,” the tour premiere of “Who’ll Stop the Rain,” and a rare (on this tour, at least) “Ramrod.” The entire second half of the show plus encores is professionally filmed.
1992: At the third of eleven Meadowlands shows on World Tour 1992, Bruce closes the evening with the tour premiere of “Jersey Girl,” the first performance of that song in almost seven years.
1999: The opening stand of the U.S. leg of the Reunion Tour reaches Night Five (of fifteen) at the Continental Airlines Arena in East Rutherford.
2002: Bruce and the E Street Band play an afternoon Rising Tour rehearsal show at Asbury Park’s Convention Hall before an audience of contest winners. Bruce plays “Countin’ on a Miracle” for the first time, and “Into the Fire” features Clarence on bagpipes (that arrangement will not make it to the tour itself). “Glory Days” also makes its return, which surprisingly was not played at all during the Reunion Tour. That evening, Bruce surprises the concert winners when he shows up at Sonny’s Southern Cuisine and takes requests.
2003: Night Six of ten at Giants Stadium on the Rising Tour opens with the tour premiere of “Adam Raised a Cain.”
2005: At his solo acoustic show at the Greensboro Coliseum, Bruce tour debuts “Two Hearts” and plays “If I Should Fall Behind” on the pump organ for the first time.
2009: Bruce and the E Street Band take the Working on a Dream Tour into its European home stretch, winding up the leg with a five-show mini-tour of Spain, starting with this first show in Bilbao. “Does This Bus Stop at 82nd Street” and “You Never Can Tell” both get the tour premiere treatment.
2016: Bruce continues his Scandinavian mini-tour with a show in Trondheim, opening with the tour premiere of “Who’ll Stop the Rain” and adding a mid-set tour premiere of “Radio Nowhere.”
2018: Springsteen on Broadway continues its theatrical run at the Walter Kerr Theater in New York City.
2022: Bruce surprises Bleachers fans when he joins the band for “Chinatown” at their Radio City Music Hall show in New York City.
