I think if Brandon is indeed taking the year out for solo stuff though, we won't see this.
I'd wager that they'll return in late 2026 or early 2027 with a new record. The fact that all four of them played the Vegas residency suggests they're all at an understanding again after a few years where they seem to have vaguely hand-waved the whole thing.
Either that, or they man up and give us a Battle Born anniversary show. If Bruce Springsteen tells you it's the best record you've put out, it deserves a little more love. Was gutted that the title track returned and was then dropped after two or three turns on the Rebel Diamonds run.
I had a dream the other year that Springsteen had announced a back to basics tour for the following year - and by that, I meant really back to basics. Just him, Lofgren, Tallent, Bittan and - for some reason - Manu Katché on drums. No SVZ, no Weinberg, no horns, no violin, no Charlie.
I'd have been all over that. Would offer a fascinating way to recast a lot of songs.
