Much as i hope de, i severly doubt it.. those dates id guess are only half a tour, no NJ date for One thing..

Itd be august before hed hit europe.. would need about a week in the o2 if he were to come here then..

blastman

I agree, think it's going to be next year for Europe. There'll be dates or a second half of the tour added to the US schedule first, I'd say.

Downloading the third night in Perth, can't wait to hear Highway To Hell properly!

interlocked

Brilliant download.

After Night 1 in Adelaide yesterday he's up to 89 songs in seven shows.

And Adelaide was an even better set list than Perth 3!

God only knows what he'll pull out for Night 2

43 degrees there at the moment.....

reading a book atm, Springsteen on Springsteen......really good its a copy of his interviews up til 2012, lan Dempsey interview is in it! Barrowed it from the library

dolittle

at the earliest nov/dec for europe

Rumours abound that Eddie Vedder and Glen Hansard will join Bruce on stage in Melbourne

Forster

Great gig in Melbourne Sunday night - 3 hours 50 mins - he just kept going on and on to near midnight.

Love Tom Morello in the band - High Hopes a stand out live and always great to hear full Born To Run album.

Have to say Aussie audience less lively than us plus very wear very few tshirts etc so not the same atmosphere as Home.

Got Roulette too- a real bonus!

I think its important to recognise the whole cast of supporting characters in these shows also. Its not just Bruce bustin his ass up there for the best part of 4 hours and it goes above and beyond what pretty much all of the other big touring bands are expected to do at a concert.

Fair play to everyone involved, some of the E Street members are no spring chickens either!

I was at the cinema yesterday, saw a trailer for a documentary called "20 Feet from Stardom". Its about backing singers and how amazing talented some of them are, working on the road with the likes of the Stones and ESB but never get the limelight as solo musicians that they deserve. The Boss is interviewed in it along with a lot of other legends. Looks like a good watch and also Oscar nominated.

Linked it on to a friend that fluent in german....let ye know as soon as l do!

***update****

Asked my friend for the gist of it......" its supposed to be a secret but he'll be playing that stadium in Hamburg in July."

***another bit****

"it says an American tour has been confirmed for April and May + that a last leg of the tour in Europe is "highly speculated""

dixiefly

Wow if this is true.

However I still struggle to see it happening as they are back in the States until mid May. That could see additional gigs added and the band, roadies etc are due a break.

just switched on the radio...waitin on a sunny day came on....its a sign!!!

PTH2009

he mite not include an irish date. he could just do venues he didnt do during the wrecking ball tour.

Would be cool to see him in the Aviva or the RDS again

backstreets

If he comes and there is no way Bruce would not visit Ireland if he is touring Europe, it will almost certainly be a Dublin gig and it will be the R.D.S

Aiken will have a bumper summer what with 5 sold out Garth Brooks shows and now Bruce as well( if it happens)

How come nobody uses Google Translate?!


Bahr field - What a Concert Pops for Hamburg . Rock superstar Bruce Springsteen (64) should still play this summer here at the stadium.

The U.S. star (120 million albums sold) is on a world tour since mid-January. Currently in New Zealand, where he plays Saturday and Sunday in Auckland at the stadium. Already known are the dates

Pop-Alarm in Hamburg Stadium: After a while it was there, musically speaking, quiet, heck now crashing again at major concerts in the public park.

And also in 2015 to run the plans: The UK megastars 'Coldplay' singer Chris Martin to (36) will report back after a long break. Also in stages. Here, too, wondered out loud band management through Hamburg.
And a German Star also has big plans. More information soon in FIG.

The translation ain't the Mae West, but you get the gist!

Here's hoping Bruce and the E Street pay us another visit!
Please let it not be the R.D.S!

This vid came up as recommended for me on youtube, I had to say I approached with serious caution, but as usual Bruce pulled it out the bag. The man can do no wrong even with a song like this cheese fest.
