Are they gonna announce U.S. dates and the new album, or what?

I've got to go see Bruce more than once this time around. Who knows what E Street member will die next.

Has anyone ever left the E Street Band alive?

David Sancious did, Little Steven did for a decade or so...

I just realized... Garry Tallent is the only original member of the band not named Bruce.

It is now very strongly rumored that;

1) The album is called 'Wrecking Ball' and contains a reworked version of that song, which was written and played at the very end of the Working On A Dream Tour and then released in live form as a single

2) It also contains a version of 'Land of Hope and Dreams' (Another song with no studio release but which was a regular on the Reunion and Rising tours and released in live form on 'Live From New York') either from the studio or from the last tour, with a lengthy sax solo as a tribute to Clarence Clemons.

3) There is a lengthy rumored track list from a few days ago which had seemed pretty sketchy but which included 'We Take Care Of Our Own' and thus now has to have a lot more credibility- it also included songs like 'Rocky Ground', 'The Depression', 'Death To My Hometown'. 'Easy Money' and 'Jack Of All Trades'.

Okay, have now listened to the new single three times and LOVE it. Better than anything on Working On A Dream.

Catchy, brilliant riff, up-tempo, big sonic landscape - REALLY anthemic chorus. Will be a keeper live.

Album- Wrecking Ball

1) We Take Care Of Our Own
2) Easy Money
3) Shackled and Drawn
4) Jack Of All Trades
5) Death To My Hometown
6) This Depression
7) Wrecking Ball
8) You've Got It
9) Rocky Ground
10) Land Of Hope And Dreams
11) We Are Alive

Bonus Version with two extra tracks;
12) Swallowed Up
13) American Land

I wonder what the more experimental type track will sound like, since that was mentioned.

Nonetheless, one of my favorite artists ever is releasing an album this year! Awesome!  :D :D

Never thought I'd say this, but We Take Care Of Our Own reminds me of Coldplay done better.

GREAT song. Keyboards, guitar, Drums and vocals are all fantastic

two things that were ok: clapping  ??? and the use of "we take care of our own"

anyways. better than anything off the past album. but I don't see Coldplay in it
