Over the weekend, Bruce Springsteen kicked off his UK and European leg of his Tour in Cardiff.
The singer performed at the Principality Stadium on the first night of this tour, and you can check out the setlist below.
This show marked Springsteen’s first show in the city in 11 years, as part of a tour which will also see him head to London’s Wembley Stadium for two shows in July, as well as shows across Ireland including Cork, Kilkenny and Dublin.
“gonna need a lot of help” – Springsteen Introduces Show To Audience
Speaking to the audience, Bruce Springsteen said, “It’s great to be in Cardiff, it’s good to be in Wales”.
He added, “The E Street Band is here tonight to bring you the joyous power of rock ‘n’ roll. We’re gonna need some help, we’re gonna need a lot of help, we’re gonna need a shit load of help!”.
As part of the customary tradition at Springsteen shows, fans of The Boss held up signs with song request, with Bruce and the E Street Band performing tracks ‘Better Days’, and ‘If I Was the Priest’.
Introducing the latter to the audience, Springsteen said, “Here’s a song I wrote 50 years ago. It was what I was busy doing while you weren’t here”.
