Springsteen announces England concert dates
NEW YORK, USA (AP) — Bruce Springsteen has announced the first dates for his European tour with the E Street Band.
They’ll play four shows in England next summer.
The dates are June 21 in Sunderland; June 22 in Manchester; June 24 at the Isle of Wight festival; and July 14 at Hard Rock Calling in London.
The European shows will run from mid-May through the end of July.
They’ll also be touring in the United States. That information will be released down the road.
In 1981, Springsteen and the E Street Band re-recorded Jimmy Cliff’s Trapped and the song achieved huge prominence when it was included on 1985’s We Are the World benefit album.
This will be the first tour for the E Street Band since saxophonist Clarence Clemons died in June from complications of a stroke.
Springsteen’s last tour was the Working on a Dream tour, which ended in 2009.
