They\u2019d been touring heavily for the past three years, and it was time for an extended break. But seven days into the year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/politics\/politics-news\/minneapolis-ice-shooting-what-we-know-1235495692\/\">Ren\u00e9e Good<\/a> was killed by an ICE agent while protesting in Minneapolis. Just 17 days later, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-features\/alex-pretti-veterans-gun-owners-country-music-1235505557\/\">Alex Pretti <\/a>was fatally shot during a confrontation with two United States Customs and Border Protection officers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tSpringsteen responded with the protest song \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/bruce-springsteen-minneapolis-killings-protest-song-1235506221\/\">Streets of Minneapolis<\/a>,\u201d where he honored both Good and Pretti by name and pinned the blame for their deaths on \u201cKing Trump.\u201d But it didn\u2019t feel like enough. He knew he had to take his message across America.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tThe Land of Hope and Dreams tour <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-live-reviews\/bruce-springsteen-tour-opener-minneapolis-set-list-1235539982\/\">kicked off March 31 in Minneapolis.<\/a> And if the \u201cNo Kings\u201d banner slapped across the tour poster wasn\u2019t blunt enough, Springsteen made his stance clear before he played a note of music that first night. \u201cThe America that I love,\u201d he roared, \u201cthe America that I\u2019ve written about for 50 years, that\u2019s been a beacon of hope and liberty around the world, is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, racist, reckless, and treasonous administration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tHe delivered that speech verbatim and played a set of politically charged songs, including \u201cBorn in the U.S.A.,\u201d \u201cDeath to My Hometown,\u201d \u201cLong Walk Home,\u201d and \u201cYoungstown,\u201d at 20 shows over the next two months. And he bookended the set with two covers: Edwin Starr\u2019s \u201cWar\u201d and Bob Dylan\u2019s \u201cChimes of Freedom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tWhen the tour wrapped May 30 at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, directors Chris Hilson and Thom Zimny had cameras rolling for a concert film that Springsteen is releasing in increments on YouTube. The first seven songs (\u201cWar,\u201d \u201cBorn in the U.S.A.,\u201d \u201cDeath to My Hometown,\u201d \u201cClampdown,\u201d \u201cNo Surrender,\u201d and \u201cDarkness on the Edge of Town\u201d) are available right now, titled <em>Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band: Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour (Philadelphia Freedom Cut).<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tThe day before it went live, Springsteen called up <em>Rolling Stone<\/em> to talk about the tour, the concert film, the political moment we\u2019re still living through, his next album, future concert runs, his thoughts on the midterms, and much more.<\/p>\n<section class=\"brands-most-popular \/\/ editors-pick-module lrv-u-margin-tb-2 lrv-u-border-a-2 u-box-shadow-5-5 lrv-u-padding-lr-1 a-span1 u-padding-b-1@tablet u-overflow-hidden\">\n<h2 id=\"section-heading\" class=\"c-heading larva  lrv-u-text-align-center u-border-color-black a-font-theme-primary-xxs lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase u-letter-spacing-0063 lrv-u-padding-t-050 u-padding-b-0375@tablet lrv-u-padding-b-050@mobile-max lrv-u-border-b-2\">\n<p>\t\tEditor\u2019s picks<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<\/section>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band: Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour (Philadelph...\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ph7SZcdIK0E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>Where am I catching you?<\/strong><br \/>I\u2019m in New Jersey. I just stepped out of the ocean.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>Sounds great. Now, most big rock tours are planned about a year in advance. That wasn\u2019t the case with this one.<\/strong><br \/>Well, we had done something similar, though not quite as focused, in Europe the previous spring and early summer. And because of the content of the material and what the show was, I said, \u201cI\u2019ve got to do this in America at some point.\u201d And so we quickly booked 20 shows and decided to bring it to the States. That\u2019s basically what happened.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>What were your goals going into these shows? Are you trying to change minds? Bring like-minded people together? Channel your indignation?<\/strong><br \/>I don\u2019t have any strict goals. Basically, I\u2019m out there to perform that music and to provide its message. Minneapolis occurred, so I wrote \u201cStreets of Minneapolis,\u201d and that fired the whole project, really, into being. So, okay, \u201cWe should go out and play this song then.\u201d And then I structured a set that basically took material I\u2019d been writing over the past 50 years and, because of the structure of the set, it contemporized it all. That was the idea. It was the state of the nation for 2026.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>During that little window of time between the announcement and the start of the tour, the war started in Iran. How did that change the tone of the show for you?<\/strong><br \/>Well, first I wondered how I was going to address that because I felt that was going to need to be addressed. And I sat around and\u2026 generally the country goes to war and people fall and step on the side of the home team. But I was trying to think, \u201cWell, what\u2019s a way to address this that feels even-handed?\u201d I remembered we did a version of \u201cWar\u201d in 1985.<\/p>\n<section class=\"brands-most-popular \/\/ recirculation-modules lrv-u-margin-tb-2 lrv-u-border-a-2 u-box-shadow-5-5 lrv-u-padding-lr-1 a-span1 u-padding-b-1@tablet u-overflow-hidden\">\n<h2 id=\"section-heading\" class=\"c-heading larva  lrv-u-text-align-center u-border-color-black a-font-theme-primary-xxs lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase u-letter-spacing-0063 lrv-u-padding-t-050 u-padding-b-0375@tablet lrv-u-padding-b-050@mobile-max lrv-u-border-b-2\">\n<p>\t\tRelated Content<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tAnd so I had this speech that you see at the top of the [film] where I recite a litany of things and then \u201cpeace over\u2026\u201d boom, \u201cwar!\u201d And once we hit that, we knew that\u2019s how the show opens. I thought it was one of the greatest show openings we ever had.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>\u201cWar\u201d transitioned right into \u201cBorn in the U.S.A.,\u201d which was pretty incredible.<\/strong><br \/>It reclaimed \u201cBorn in the U.S.A.,\u201d re-contextualized it so we could be clearly understood. There was no doubt about what it was about when it came after \u201cWar\u201d and before \u201cDeath to My Hometown.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bruce Springsteen - Born In the U.S.A.

Did you avoid it here because even after all these years, a lot of Americans still don\u2019t get it?<\/strong><br \/>Yeah. It was a little dubious for me in the States, and I could never really sing it with the confidence that you need to sing something like that. While in Europe, for some reason. \u2026 we have a huge audience in Europe that is very, very interested in America, American ideas. They\u2019re deeply invested in the band. And it just always felt more natural over there and more understood.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tBut this time, and I forget how it exactly came to be placed in that spot, but I had it originally at the top of the set. It was the show opener because that said, \u201cOkay, this is the show where we cover ourselves in the flag. Our purpose is to reclaim the flag.\u201d And so it started the show until \u201cWar\u201d came along, and then obviously they worked together pretty well.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>You\u2019ve played \u201cDarkness on the Edge of Town\u201d a lot over the years, but the words felt very different when they came after the Clash\u2019s \u201cClampdown\u201d and \u201cNo Surrender.\u201d<\/strong><br \/>Yeah. And that\u2019s what should have happened to basically almost every song we played during the set. It was just slightly realigned, redefined, re-contextualized into the moment. If we had a goal, that was the goal. And at the end of the night, you heard some sort of state of the nation. When you hear \u201cDarkness\u201d in that context, it had just a lot of different overtones. It\u2019s simply one of my greatest songs. It\u2019s apocalyptic, it\u2019s personally apocalyptic in nature. It was just powerful there.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Ohio \/ Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young  (Live at the Music Hall, Boston -  03\/10\/1971)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Q7Ohc7kQh5U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>I was at opening night, which was the first time you played \u201cStreets of Minneapolis\u201d with a band. It really made me think of Neil Young\u2019s \u201cOhio.\u201d In both instances, the government killed its own citizens, and a song came out immediately that called out the President by name, fearlessly.<\/strong><br \/>Yeah, it was very much a child of \u201cOhio.\u201d And it was a song that I wrote only for that moment. I didn\u2019t know what its future might hold. It was written just for that specific moment. And I got good advice from Tom Morello when I was frightened that I had gotten too high on the soapbox. He gave me that classic line that said, \u201cSubtlety is wonderful, but sometimes you have to kick them in the teeth.\u201d I realized, \u201cOkay, this is that moment.\u201d And that\u2019s what that song does.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>Are you releasing the movie in segments now timed to the midterms?<\/strong><br \/>Well, it wasn\u2019t specifically planned to fall into the midterms, but if it does, that\u2019s great. Really, we just had Thom [Zimny] do the first seven songs to see what we had. I didn\u2019t know what the show was like on film. He basically cut, edited, and we got the sound good on the first seven pieces. When I saw it, I said, \u201cThis has got to come out now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tI can\u2019t wait another three, four months for the rest of the concert to be edited and have it finished. The whole thing, the pop-up tour, was about immediacy and being in this moment, providing something that I felt an audience, my audience, could use in this moment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tAnd so as soon as I saw it, I said, \u201cThis comes out now.\u201d Everybody said, \u201cWell, what do we do with the rest?\u201d I said, \u201cWell, we\u2019ll serialize it is what we\u2019ll do.\u201d And basically that\u2019s what we\u2019re going to do. You\u2019ll be getting seven songs or so in four different compartments, and at the end of the day, you\u2019ll have the whole show.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tI think it has more impact that way. The first seven songs, to my eye, have a tremendous amount of impact because it\u2019s only 40 minutes. And anybody can spare that 40 minutes to get an idea of what we were trying [to do]. It\u2019s 40 minutes, and it says everything we wanted to say.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>The setlist didn\u2019t really change from night to night. Did your experience on Broadway change the way you approached putting a show together?<\/strong><br \/>Nope. It was simply, once we found that setlist, it was not going to be something where I threw in \u201cDarlington County\u201d or something else there. It just wouldn\u2019t have made sense. That setlist was its own novel, for better or for worse. The minute we stumbled on it, with the exception of\u2026 I think we added \u201cClampdown\u201d along the way. But once we found that setlist, we stuck with it the whole way. It was fun because it does get deeper as you go. The Philadelphia show that we were lucky enough to film was just one of the highlights of the tour.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bruce Springsteen - Chimes of Freedom, 5\/27\/2026 Nationals Park, Washington DC\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WyNhmTAex7U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>A lot of fans presumed you\u2019d film the big stadium show in D.C. Why did you go with Philadelphia?<\/strong><br \/>Well, we didn\u2019t film D.C. because we wanted to film two nights that could be similar and intercut. So, if I\u2019m correct, we filmed Boston and Philly, and if I\u2019m right, we only use Philly. So that was the reason. D.C. was a one-off and it was a great show outside in that ballpark. We had so many good shows on this tour. And the band was just ripping and roaring at the end, by the time we got towards the end. So when we hit Philly, Philly just exploded. It was wonderful.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<strong>I\u2019m sure you realized that by doing a tour like this, despite everything you\u2019ve done and said before, you\u2019d lose some fans who support Trump. Some surely said, \u201cThis is the last straw for me. I\u2019m out.\u201d But if the alternative is staying quiet, I\u2019d imagine you feel it\u2019s worth that cost.<\/strong><br \/>Well, I\u2019m old now and I do what I want to do, which I\u2019ve actually always done my entire life. I always made the records I wanted to make and then went out and found the audience for them. So it was the same thing with this show. This was the show I wanted to make, the story I wanted to tell. I went out to find its audience, and I\u2019m sure there were people, and I\u2019ve read things where people were vehement about the content of the show, and that\u2019s just the way the chips fall.

I would like to go out and do 20, 30 shows. I don\u2019t imagine a 140-show E Street tour will happen again. It\u2019s just time is too short right now. But I do imagine a good series of simply shorter tours where we touch different places at different times. And the band is playing so well.
