This will be a part of “The River Tour,” which consists of nine weeks of shows in North America, and it coincides with the release of his new collection, The Ties That Bind: The River Collection. This marks Springsteen and the E Street Band’s first tour since their “High Hopes Tour,” back in 2014.
This new collection features 52 tracks on four different CDs, and they include unreleased material and four hours of never-before-seen video footage on three DVDs.
Every night of this tour is going to be mixed for release on his official website as high-quality downloads and CDs, and these recordings will be available within days of each live performance. Springsteen is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and so is his E Street Band, which were inducted in 2014.
