Bruce Springsteen nails down more shows
With one show left on their 2007 North American tour, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band continue to roll out dates for another run across the continent early next year.
The veteran rockers have been announcing 2008 shows in drips and drabs, with the latest additions comprising March shows in Hamilton, Ontario; Milwaukee; and Vancouver, British Columbia. Tickets for the Hamilton and Milwaukee shows will hit the box office during the coming week; an on-sale date for the Vancouver show was not available at press time. Details are listed below.
In addition to penciling in the aforementioned handful of new shows, strong ticket sales last weekend in Anaheim, CA, prompted the group to add a second consecutive night in that city, as well.
Springsteen and company are due to wrap up their current North American outing tonight (11/19) in Boston. From there, the group will tackle a European tour that launches in Spain next Sunday (11/25) and runs into mid-December. Details for that jaunt are posted at Springsteen’s website.
On Oct. 2, Springsteen and the E Street Band hit the road for the first full-scale tour of the US and Europe since 2003. That same day, the group issued “Magic,” its first new studio set since 2002’s Grammy-winning “The Rising.”
On tour, Springsteen is joined by E Street Band keyboardist Roy Bittan, saxman/percussionist Clarence Clemons, keyboardist Danny Federici, guitarist Nils Lofgren, vocalist/guitarist Patti Scialfa, bassist Garry Tallent, guitarist Steven Van Zandt and drummer Max Weinberg.
