As the E Street tour draws nearer, rumors are floating about which cities will be the
lucky ones. One of the more interesting rumors suggests that Bruce will do a show
in Belfast, Ireland, possibly an outdoor gig in the grounds of Stormont Castle in late
May early June. These are the same grounds where the historic peace agreement
was signed in 1998. Promoter Jim Atkin has allegedly confirmed that Bruce will play

be confirmed. There are also rumors of a show at Ullevi Stadium in Gothenburg,
Sweden, where Bruce last played in 1985 (and nearly made the whole place
collapse). Read more
