Only a few months after the publication of his latest album, Working on a Dream, and after his American tour, Bruce Springsteen is ready to arrive in Europe for a series of concerts in many cities: the tour will kick off in Landgraaf in Holland on the 30th of May and will end in Santiago, Spain, on the 2nd of August. Springsteen will play in Italy as well; three dates have been scheduled: 19th of July at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, 21st July at the Stadio Olimpico in Turin, and 23rd of July at the Stadio Friuli in Udine. This will certainly be an intense summer for Springsteen’s Italian fans, who always welcome the boss in a very warm way, and who have already bought tickets and booked luxury hotels in Rome not to miss the event. On the other hand, it must be said that the boss is very good in returning his Italian followers’ affection: the concerts that he will hold in July come only one year after his latest live performance in Italy (in 2008 he played on the stage of Stadio Meazza in Milan, where it had held his first concert in Italy in 1985), and they are expected to recreate the magic atmosphere of past performances. Also for this tour the boss will be accompanied by the E Street Band, who has worked with Springsteen for about 30 years, and who are now playing again with the boss after a separation occurred in the 90s. The fans who will attend the concert in Italy’s capital city staying in a cheap lodging in Rome will have the chance to listen to the songs of the new album, Working on a Dream, which was published at the beginning of the year and was recorded during the breaks of the promotional tour of the previous album, Magic (2007). As the new album was recorded during the tour, on Working on a Dream Springsteen and the E Street band tried to shower the energy they accumulated during their live performances, and this is why the songs of the new album are supposed to gain a surplus value when played live. Besides the songs of Working on a Dream, Springsteen and the band will play also other songs included in older albums, to go over the wide discography of the boss, who has released 14 studio albums throughout his career, besides other live recordings and greatest hits. Book now a b&b in Rome and get ready to attend a long concert (the boss never spares himself on stage), and to listen to songs that have come down in rock history, like famous Born to Run and Born in the U.S.A, and intense tracks like The Ghost of Tom Joad and Streets of Philadelphia (the latter, which was included in Philadephia original soundtrack, won the Oscar prize for the best song in 1994). Tickets: 46 †92 euro Date: 19th July 2009 Location: Sadio Olimpico, Rome, Italy
