What is the rumoured set list for Bruce Springsteen’s UK tour dates?
In the countdown to the singer's UK shows, the set list has reportedly been ‘leaked’ on social media. On Reddit, a Springsteen fan shared a screenshot from trumpeter and producer Barry Danielian’s Instagram Stories, which appears to show the set list from Springsteen's soundcheck.
Sharing their thoughts on the photograph, one fan wrote: “Saw the first six songs, got excited. Then I saw farther down Youngstown, Murder Incorporated, Long Walk Home, and got even more excited. Then I got to the bottom and saw CHIMES OF FREEDOM?!?!? I was listening to that record the other day and thought 'wouldn’t it be crazy if he put this cover back in the set?'"
A second fan was less enthusiastic, as they said: “This is just my opinion, feel free to disagree, but this setlist is pretty joyless.
“If I’m seeing Bruce at an outdoor summer stadium show, I’m hoping to have some fun. I understand the ‘story’ being told here but isn’t one of the major appeals of a Bruce show, the escapism it brings the audience?”
A third simply wrote, “Dream set list.”
