Hi Bryan Here….

Bruce Springsteen announced today that he and the E Street Band will start their first U.S. leg of the 2012 “Wrecking Ball” World Tour on March 18th  in Atlanta.   Springsteen’s 17th studio album, “Wrecking Ball,” will be released on March 6.  The band consists of  Roy Bittan – piano, synthesizer; Nils Lofgren – guitar, vocals; Patti Scialfa – guitar, vocals; Garry Tallent – bass guitar; Stevie Van Zandt – guitar, vocals; and Max Weinberg – drums; with Soozie Tyrell – violin, guitar, vocals and Charlie Giordano – keyboards.

‘We Take Care Of Our Own’, the album’s first single, can be streamed at the singer’s official website HERE; the album is also available for pre-order.  And below are all the tour dates for you to plan accordingly.  I must say, that I feel the boss and his band have to few dates in the US.  Maybe they will add a bit more.
