New for 2023: Video for 2006
1975: Bruce plays his first-ever show in Europe, a historic concert at the Hammersmith Odeon in London. The hype precedes him. Bruce famously reacts to it by tearing down posters that read “Finally, London is ready for Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band,” but despite later reports that he considered the show itself to be substandard, for those there (and for those who hear and watch it decades later via an official release) the show is intense and electric.
1978: The Darkness Tour stops in Oxford, Ohio, for a show at Miami University.
1984: Bruce plays his first show in Nebraska since the release of the album by the same name. The Nebraska segment of the set list is particularly powerful at this Lincoln show, and “Sugarland” is played for the second and last time to date.
1992: Bruce brings World Tour 1992 to the Charlotte Coliseum.
2003: Bruce releases his official video document of the Rising Tour, Live in Barcelona.
2006: Bruce and the Sessions Band play the second of a three-night stand at Dublin’s Point Theater, where “Highway Patrolman” makes its tour premiere, and “Shenandoah” makes its world debut. The show is recorded and filmed, and eight songs will be released on the Live in Dublin CD and video release. “Bobby Jean” and “Johnny 99” from this show will be released in a special Bruce Springsteen With The Sessions Band PBS Exclusive EP for PBS pledge donors.
2007: Bruce wraps up the first leg of the Magic Tour with a two-night stand at TD Banknorth Garden in Boston. Night One brings a relatively standard set, but “Jackson Cage” makes a rare appearance.
2009: The Working on a Dream Tour enters its final week with a show at Sommet Center in Nashville, where Bruce once again performs the entire Born to Run album in sequence and plays “Ring of Fire” for the first time in 35 years.
2015: Bruce performs “American Skin (41 Shots)” with John Legend, Tom Morello, Max, and Roy at Shining a Light: A Concert for Progress on Race in America at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.
2017: Springsteen on Broadway continues its theatrical run at the Walter Kerr Theater in New York City.
2019: Bruce assembles the E Street Band at his home studio in Colts Neck for the first of a five-day recording session for what will become Letter to You.
2020: Stand Up for Heroes goes virtual due to the great pandemic, with Bruce performing as he has for every other installment of the annual benefit event. Patti joins him this time for performances of “House of a Thousand Guitars,” and “I’ll See You in My Dreams,” and Bruce plays a solo acoustic “Long Walk Home” as well.
