The Boss announces two stadium shows for Summer 2012

Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band have announced two Summer stadium shows for next year before their headlining festival appearances at Hyde Park's Hard Rock Calling, and The Isle of Wight Festival at Sunderland's Stadium of Light, and Manchester's Etihad Stadium.

'The Boss' hit the music industry with the release of his first album 'Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J.', in 1973. 'The Wild, the Innocent, and The E Street Shuffle' quickly followed. The 1973 albums marked the beginning of Springsteen's career and since then Springsteen has sold tens of millions of albums and won over legions of loyal fans worldwide in his 30 plus years as a "rock and roll legend". His break came after a tour with the band Chicago. The singer-songwriter came up with what is called his breakthrough effort 'Born to Run' in 1974. The singer has sold in excess of 65 million albums in the United States alone and 120 million worldwide. The band's two stadium dates are:

Thursday 21st June - Sunderland Stadium of Light
Friday 22nd June - Etihad Stadium, Manchester

No support acts have been announced yet for these stadium shows.

Tickets are priced at £55, they will go on sale at 10am on Saturday 3rd December, and eFestivals will have links to buy them then.
