What's new on E Street?

It appears to be a lot. The social media accounts of Bruce Springsteen shared a 15-second live clip at noon on Monday, May 23, of the modern era E Street Band performing the intro of “Born in the U.S.A.,” with a referral to “May 24, 2022 Brucespringsteen.net” at the end of the vid.

“Oh my sweet Jesus it’s happening,” commented one fan on Twitter.

An announcement of a long-awaited tour would be a reasonable interpretation.

“I just wet myself,” commented another fan.

Update: A tour has been announced.

Bruce Springsteen, his wife Patti Scialfa and Steven Van Zandt perform at the Los Angeles Sports Arena on March 15, 2016.

The Boss said you'll be seeing the E Street Band “pretty soon” on tour during an appearance on Sirius XM's E Street Radio with Jim Rotolo on Wednesday, March 9.

“We're getting our plans for touring together, we'll be out there,” Springsteen said. “We hope to be out there this year. I just didn't have confidence or wanted to take the risk for my audience that it was going to be OK so we put it off for a little while. But we're working on plans to get it all together.”

The last time the E Street Band performed together on stage was Feb. 25, 2017, for the final night of the “The River Tour.”

Then again, it might be a tease for a different announcement.

“Please be a new pro shot concert video!” commented another fan.

Maybe a pro shot concert video of an upcoming tour?

We'll find out tomorrow.
