Info & Setlist | Venue

---

Tour debut "Local Hero" opens the 27-song set, in just its third ever E Street Band performance and its first since 2013. "Jersey Girl" also debuts to open the encores. During "The Promised Land", Bruce pointed to a girl's sign and she took that as an invite to join him on stage. Bruce quickly got her back to her spot in the pit and then did a shot with her (while she was in the pit and he was on stage). "I'll See You In My Dreams" is dedicated to "my nephew, Michael Shave," who passed away earlier in the day.
