The Other Eras Tour: 9 Thoughts on Bruce Springsteen at Madison Square Garden

By Brian Hiatt

Brian Hiatt

After a two-hour-plus main set that slammed home themes of mortality and impermanence and the way of all flesh, Bruce Springsteen reemerged on Madison Square Garden’s stage Saturday night, April 1, for his usual lengthy encore, and announced “something special for New York City.” He pointed over at Soozie Tyrell, who began a dead-on recreation of one of rock’s few canonical violin melodies, over piano from all-time-great arpeggio purveyor Roy Bittan. They eased the E Street Band into the 11-minute-long, 48-year-old mini-rock-opera “Jungleland,” played and sung with enough muscle and drama and soaring perfection to momentarily make the rest of the show’s messages seem like a lie. Death? Impossible. Decline? Not tonight.

Editor’s picks

The 250 greatest guitarists of all time, the 500 greatest albums of all time, the 50 worst decisions in movie history, every awful thing trump has promised to do in a second term.

Still, he could mix it up a bit more. Besides the “Jungleland” addition, there is one near-wildcard slot in the setlist, filled at MSG with his taut-as-ever, if overused over the years, reworking of Jimmy Cliff’s “Trapped” (at the previous stop on the tour, it was “Darkness on the Edge of Town” in that slot, which would’ve been more welcome). In the actual Eras Tour, Taylor Swift has a truly rotating song slot, offering a chance to slip the deepest of cuts into the set every night. With Springsteen’s vast catalog, including the entire, as-yet-unplayed-before-a-paying-audience Western Stars album from 2019 (that title track, one of his best-ever songs, should kill live), slipping in one real obscurity every night certainly couldn’t hurt. There’s other songs, too, including “Johnny 99,” that seem eminently swappable on any given night.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band Are Playing on the Beach in Asbury Park. Here's How It Happened

Bruce springsteen plots return to the road in spring 2024, bruce springsteen postpones remaining 2023 tour dates due to peptic ulcer disease.

Max Weinberg, who has the greatest physical challenge of anyone in the band as a 71-year-old arena-rock drummer, has been preparing for this tour practically since the last one ended in 2017, and his feel, groove, and sense of time seemed subtler than ever. A shades-wearing Garry Tallent was, as always, impossibly locked into Weinberg’s kick drum, even as the arena’s inevitable muddiness sometimes meant he was more felt than heard. It’s always fun to figure out what parts Nils Lofgren — now a simultaneous Crazy Horse member and E Streeter — is adding to the mix, from a fancy rhythm guitar-bit on “No Surrender” to a chops-enhanced version of a guitar break originated by Springsteen on “Rosalita.”

This tour’s extra horns and singers only enhanced the show — with just a couple of exceptions. The horn section, in particular, is most welcome when it’s doing something interesting, which is often, as on the New Orleans breaks of “Johnny 99,” on the twin songs from The Wild, The Innocent, and the E Street Shuffle , and of course “Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out.” It only feels superfluous when the players are roped into recapitulating, and almost overpowering, signature riffs during two encore hits, “Dancing in the Dark” and “Glory Days.” 

Jake Clemons is a miracle. Springsteen’s songs evoked ghosts throughout the evening, and Clemons invoked one just in his playing and presence. His big-lunged tenor sax tone has always had an uncanny resemblance to his late uncle Clarence Clemons’ otherwise singular sound. But at the Garden, after more than a decade in the band, Jake sounded more like his late predecessor than ever, even as, at age 43, he continued to bring his own youthful-by-E-Street standards energy to the stage. From the start, the other 21st-century replacement for a departed E Streeter, skilled keyboardist Charlie Giordano, has seemed less wedded to Danny Federici’s organ parts. But then again, Federici himself was rarely wedded to his own studio parts on any given night.

Even if some of the crowd had trouble staying in the moment, Springsteen never did.  He still shut his eyes in utter immersion as he sang “Badlands” for the 1,229th time, and still drew energy from the audience in some eerie yet very real way. (Yes, that number is correct, per Brucebase .) He still has some surprises left on guitar, with his solo on “Kitty’s Back” noticeably straying from his usual harmonic vocabulary to match his horn players’ more adventurous note choices. And his voice continues to do that weird thing where it somehow sounds stronger towards the end of the show than at the beginning.

It’s “sways,” damn it. Newly aware of the mildly ludicrous debate over whether Mary’s dress sways or waves on “Thunder Road,” Springsteen is now singing “sways” with exaggerated clarity and a huge smile.

Bruce Springsteen Kicks Off 2023 Tour: Video, Pictures, Set List

Bruce Springsteen launched his 2023 tour tonight in Tampa, Fla., marking his first live performance with the E Street Band in close to six years.

“Good evening, Tampa!” he declared as he stepped on stage, greeted by thunderous applause from the fans in attendance. From there, Springsteen jumped straight into opening song “No Surrender,” the side two opener from 1984's Born in the U.S.A.

He then proceeded to deliver material from throughout his career. Early on the set featured some of Springsteen's more recent tunes, such as "Ghosts" and "Letter to You" from 2020's Letter to You . Two other songs from that album made their live debut this night: "Last Man Standing," which he delivered solo acoustic and "Burnin' Train."

Watch Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band Perform 'No Surrender'

He also performed his rendition of "Nightshift," the Commodores classic he covered on 2022's Only the Strong Survive .

After 21 songs, Springsteen took a breather, only to return for an encore featuring many of his most beloved hits. "Born to Run," "Glory Days" and "Dancing in the Dark" ramped up the energy, with the Boss then closing his night with a solo acoustic rendition of "I'll See You in My Dreams."

Pictures and the full set list from the performance can be found below.

Springsteen's last concert with the E Street Band took place on Feb. 25, 2017 in Auckland, New Zealand, though he has participated in some other projects since then — he launched  Springsteen on Broadway  in the fall of 2017, co-hosted a podcast with former President Barack Obama and released three albums, 2019's Western Stars , Letter to You and Only the Strong Survive .

Watch Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band Perform 'Nightshift'

"I'm going to consider myself lucky if I lose just a year of touring life," Springsteen said to  Rolling Stone  in 2020, about six months into the pandemic. "Once you hit 70, there's a finite amount of tours and a finite amount of years that you have. And so you lose one or two, that's not so great. Particularly because I feel the band is capable of playing at the very, very, very top, or better than, of its game right now. And I feel as vital as I've ever felt in my life. ... It's not being able to do something that is a fundamental life force, something I've lived for since I was 16 years old."

Springsteen will continue touring across the U.S. in the coming months, and then bring the show to Europe for a string of dates that begin on April 28 in Barcelona. He'll then return to the States for a second North American leg that starts in August.

5 highlights of Bruce Springsteen's 3-hour nonstop Tulsa show that bordered on a religious experience

TULSA — "No retreat, baby, no surrender," Bruce Springsteen triumphantly growled in the opening moments of his three-hour, 27-song, nonstop show Tuesday night at Tulsa's BOK Center.  

In the past month, "No Surrender," a defiant anthem from his juggernaut 1984 album "Born in the U.S.A.," has emerged as the most frequently chosen opening number for the New Jersey native's highly anticipated new tour with the le-gen-dary E Street Band.  

Based on his relentlessly epic Oklahoma return engagement, the song served as a spot-on declaration of intent.  

Expertly backed by his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band, Springsteen gave a concert that lived up to his reputation as a consummate live performer, one that bordered on a religious experience as he and The E Street Band, Horns and Choir played like the "Glory Days" (a hit that surprisingly didn't make the Tulsa set list) might come to an abrupt end at any moment.  

From the surprising set list to the hottest solos, here are five highlights of Springsteen's 2023 sold-out Oklahoma tour stop:

1. For Springsteen, 'Tulsa Time' means all energy, no stops 

"Good evening, Tulsa. Now that we're here, we're living on 'Tulsa Time,'" Springsteen declared with a grin as he and his rightly renowned cohorts emerged from beneath the enormous stage to immediately deafening cheers.  

Apparently, The Boss' definition of "Tulsa Time" means no breaks, no stops and a seemingly inexhaustible energy and enthusiasm.  

At 73, The Boss lived up to his famous hard-working, blue-collar ethos, performing with the intensity of a guy trying to earn overtime pay. By the time he took his final bows, he had visibly sweated through his light gray button-down shirt with the rolled-up sleeves. 

Much has been made of the ticket prices on Springsteen's new tour — officially listed at $63.50 to $403.50, plus fees, for his Oklahoma stop, premium seats for some shows soared to $4,000 last year thanks to Ticketmaster's now-notorious dynamic pricing , but the buzz in the days leading up to the Tulsa show was all about truly cheap seats going for less than a beer on the secondary ticket sites — but the music icon seemed determined to give fans their money's worth, whatever they paid.  

Pausing only the briefest moments for a speedy guitar switches and quick counts of "one, two, three, four," he set an unyielding pace for the night. Both his bandmates and his fans were eager to keep up, quickly powering through an opening salvo that ranged from his 1978 single "Prove It All Night" to the title track to his 2020 album "Letter to You." 

2. The Boss seizes the spotlight with his showmanship and guitar skills 

Don't let all the accolades he's earned as a songwriter fool you: Springsteen is a rock 'n' roll showman who seems to relish performing and interacting with his devoted audience, whose bellows of "Bruuuuuce" could be heard in the brief breaks between each song.  

The Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient frequently strutted down the catwalks to dance with and touch the outstretched hands of his fans, he threw numerous guitar picks into the audience, and the harmonica he used for the spirited opening of "The Promised Land" ended up getting tossed into the crowd, too.  

His spoken-word zenith on "Backstreets" mesmerized the crowd, while his smiling jokes about "Johnny 99" needing "more cowbell" tickled the fervent fans.  

Although his band includes guitar legends like Nils Lofgren and Stevie Van Zandt, The Boss showed off his own prowess with scorching solos on classics like "Candy's Room," "Kitty's Back" and "Badlands." 

3. Rock icon captivates audience with vivid storytelling  

Although Springsteen mostly let the music do the talking, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer did pause for a couple of storytelling moments.  

"I wrote this when I was 22. Still don't know what it's about. That's good. You never quite figure the good songs out," he said to introduce the venerable one-time rarity “If I Was The Priest," which he rerecorded for his 2020 album before adding it to this year's tour set list.  

He captivated the crowd with a moving yarn about his time with his first rock band: The Castiles.  

"It was 1965, I was 15, and it was a summer afternoon when I heard a knock on my door. It was buddy George Theiss, who went to school with me and he was dating my sister. ... He said that she told him that I played some guitar — I'd only been playing about six months, but he invited me to audition for his band," Springsteen recalled.  

"I embarked on the greatest adventure of my young life: I joined my first real rock 'n' roll band. Yes, yes, yes, yes. And we last for three years — that's incredible for teenagers. ... It was an explosive time in American history, an amazing period to be in a rock band — and we named ourselves after a bottle of shampoo. Names were a little less important at the time." 

He said 50 years later, on another sunny day, he visited Theiss on his deathbed. After his old bandmate's death, Springsteen penned the emotional ode "Last Man Standing," which he performed acoustic in Tulsa with just a mournful trumpet solo from Barry Danielian to punctuate the lovingly somber mood.  

"It's just about the job we choose before we even know to call it 'work,' it's about the passions we follow as children. And at 15, it's all tomorrows, it's all 'hellos,' and later on, it's a lot more 'goodbyes.' But it makes you realize how important living every moment is," Springsteen told the appreciative audience. 

4. The E Street Band shows their stuff in Tulsa concert 

It isn't lost on The Boss that his E Street Band mates are legends in their own right, and Danielian wasn't the only member of Springsteen's 15-strong backing ensemble that seized the spotlight to the crowd's delight on Tuesday night.  

Naturally, "The E Street Shuffle" gave the entire group a chance to show out, especially the E Street Horns and drummer extraordinaire "Mighty" Max Weinberg, who engaged in a playful duel with backup percussionist Anthony Almonte. The E Street Choir, piano man Roy Bittan and superstar saxophone player Jake Clemons (nephew of the late, great E Street sax man Clarence Clemons) lit up the 1980s anthem "Darlington County" like the Fourth of July.  

Although Springsteen's wife and E Street Band singer/guitarist Patti Scialfa was absent from the Tulsa show, backup vocalist Curtis King proved a fine duet partner with his sweet soul singing with The Boss on their rendition of the Commodores' classic "Nightshift," from Springsteen's 2022 covers album "Only the Strong Survive." 

Any moment when Springsteen and Van Zandt share the microphone and swap guitar highlights is sure to bring the smiles.  

But Lofgren threatened to steal the whole show with his whirling dervish solo on Springsteen's gravelly rendition of "Because the Night," the beloved ballad The Boss co-wrote with Patti Smith .  

5. Lights go up for lights-out encore to cap career-spanning set  

True to form, Springsteen and his fellow rockers hardly hesitated before launching into their seven-song encore. The change from main set to follow-up was marked by the house lights coming on, the better for the band to see the still-energetic audience as they stormed through the hits "Thunder Road" and "Born to Run" as well as the frisky concert staple "Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)." 

Almost two hours and 45 minutes into the show, it turned out practically no one in the crowd was too tired to wave their fists, shake their booties and wailing along with "Dancing in the Dark" or to give the exceptional band its due on their signature song "Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out." 

Since the recently expanded trek launched Feb. 1 in Tampa, Florida, Springsteen and Company have been tweaking the career-spanning set list every show, so Oklahoma fans were treated to the apparent tour debut of the buoyant ballad "Bobby Jean" from 1984's "Born in the U.S.A.," while smashes like that title track and "Glory Days" were left out. (I was hoping I might hear my personal favorite, the 1987 hit "Brilliant Disguise," which made it onto the Tampa set list, but, alas, it was not to be.)  

The Boss sent the crowd home with a beautiful solo acoustic benediction "I'll See You in My Dreams." Considering how much energy everyone put into the almost three-hour event, I'm betting everyone slept pretty well.

Springsteen hasn’t spoken so much publicly about the condition that took him off the road for six months, and which caused these particular L.A. dates to be postponed for four. But something about his first Forum show Thursday caused him to get a little bit chattier about the malady.

“We’re sorry we missed you last time,” he said during a spoken interlude in the middle of an epic version of “Tenth Avenue Freezeout,” being performed as the show’s penultimate number  after the setlist had already passed the three-hour point. “I hope we didn’t put you out too much. But, man,” he elaborated, “I had the worst motherfucking bellyache you could ever imagine.”

“When I sang, my belly ached,” he said.

“When I did anything, my belly ached,” he continued.

Bruce Springsteen has fire in the belly. Lucky for him and everyone else, it’s back to being a fire that does not consume.

At a length of three hours and 20 minutes, Springsteen’s opening Forum show pretty much set the bar for not gentle into that good Thursday night. Its 200-minute running time was 40 minutes longer than most other sets of his lately, all of which already test and transcend what a guy in his early 70s who recently recovered from illness ought to be pulling off. It’s reductive, though, to focus too much on the running time, which makes it feel like an endurance test or marathon. Yes, every minute added onto a show beyond the tour mean confers some kind of badge of pride on attendees, and it’s great fun to start doing the numbers as a show begins to expand… but the miracle is not just that he endures.

The miracle is that he bobs and weaves with a dynamic setlist that needs that much expansiveness to sufficiently cover multiple moments of sorrow or grief and “Twist and Shout” (should you be so lucky to get that bonus track as a celebration of life, as Thursday’s crowd did).

As fans have already noted during these first few weeks of the 2024 touring resumption, the setlists tend to be only about 75% set in stone. That’s to say, they’re much looser than when the E Street Band hit the road again in 2023, closer to how they used to be in legendary days of yore. For anyone who likes to go to more than one show on a tour, or just for anybody who enjoys knowing they’re in the presence of some free-spiritedness, this flexibility is a godsend.

Given that the surprises each night are added onto the surety of some of the most powerful song sequences he’s ever constructed for a tour, a 2024 Bruce Springsteen show is really something that gives “overstuffed” a good name.

Most of his shows on this show have opened with “Lonesome Day,” which is nearly an overture for the conflicted lyrical feelings that will come up in the emotionally dynamic hours to come. But occasionally he’ll start off with a ringer in advance even of that opener. Thursday, it was a cover of John Lee Hooker’s “Boom Boom,” which ain’t nothing but primal — the blues as filtered through a “Nuggets” sensibility. He hadn’t done this oldie since 2016, which augured well for tour premieres and oddities.

Would an oldie this obscure count among the highlights of a three-hour-plus set that includes an inordinate amount of the best rock songs ever written? On the face of it, no. Or yes, for that segment of fans that lives for the idea of audibles being called.

The biggest surprise of the night: the return of Patti Scialfa, who performed on a few 2023 shows and then disappeared from public view. (“Where’s Patti?” isn’t quite up there with “Where’s Shelly?,” but it still remained a question.) Now we knew, without the FBI being called in: His bride is just living her post-E-Street life, happy to show up for a cameo instead of being tied to a recurring gig. “My baby’s back!,” Springsteen exclaimed, kicking off the first of two numbers the couple performed as a team. The recently rare “Tougher Than the Rest” featured Scialfa leaning in close on their single mic for harmony, followed by “Fire.” That number, Springsteen said, hadn’t been played “in a long time. We did do it on Broadway,” he clarified, but “Patti’s never done it.” By which he possibly meant never performed it as a full-on duet; his wife unexpectedly got the first verse of this ‘70s perennial all to herself. (Patti as a Pointer Sister, to name the group that really made the song famous? Live long enough, and all sorts of things can happen.)

The bones of the set were otherwise mostly intact. “Prove It All Night” follows “Lonesome Day” at the beginning, as a promise. But sometimes it seems like rock ‘n’ roll’s power as an elixir won’t be enough, if you’re reallly following how an underlying narrative develops.

“Ghosts” and “Letter to You,” both from the album of the latter name, overtly introduce the theme of loss, so often returned to. Then the mournful hits keep coming, as pointed segues. “My City of Ruins,” whose “Rise up” chorus barely disguises just how sad it is, goes in for more than 10 minutes, with cheerful chatter, as Bruce introduces the band, followed by bittersweet moments dedicated to the group’s fallen members. That in memoriam segued into a cover of the Commodores’ ‘80s hit “Nightshift,” which pays homage to soul music’s lost ‘60s and ‘70s greats, including Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson.

The soul memorial led into “Last Man Standing,” his song about realizing he was the last surviving member of his original band — a song so solemn it’s performed just by Springsteen and a solitary trumpeter, who might as well be playing “Taps.” From there, much of the crowd is relieved to hear Springsteen singing something as light as “Backstreets”… or is it? “Until the end… until the end…,” he sang, drawing one line out into a chant. It’s a “Born to Run”-based suite that has finally, after 49 year, turned into the requiem it was apparently always meant to be.

And then, as this emotionally fraught show drew closer to a close, we got the Three Stooges. That is, during the go-for-broke joy of “Rosalita,” there was a moment when the otherwise stone-faced Little Steven Van Zandt drew close to Springsteen and they indulged in some Larry, Curly and Moe-style face-poking, prodding, mugging and noise-making.

Springsteen has put on a tour that is the most bittersweet show on earth, until it finally settles for being the happiest, and occasionally even goofiest… and then turns heartbreaking again for the final encore. The most abrupt segue might be the final one, when, having climaxed with “Tenth Avenue” and (on this particular night) “Twist and Shout,” he sent the rest of the band off to their sleep while he serenaded the crowd with a completely solo number, “I’ll See You in My Dreams,” boldly sending the audience out thinking again about loved ones they’ve lost, if with a ballad that feels like a comforting lullaby. By the end of the show, he’s kept all these things in balance enough that any of these notes feel like they could be an honest place to land, whether it’s with an Isley Brothers tent revival or a heart-rending ode to creating memories as a means of cheating death.

Given his stage mastery, was it possible Springsteen was moving even himself with this show? It’s probably risky i to parse exactly what emotions a showman this great might be spontaneously feeling. The most deeply emotional moments are deeply baked into the tour. As always, he gave the much-quoted speech about his old friend and bandmate George Theiss’ passing, about the clarity that death brings the living. This should be rote for Springsteen by now, given how little variation he introduces into the homily, as he retells it. Yet his closed eyes looked moist enough as he eulogized his teenaged soulmate once again Thursday night. Honestly, it could also just have been perspiration (even though his face didn’t look that sweaty in the closeups seen on the two big screens for the rest of the show).

Either way, sweat or tears, it was working, like it’s always worked for a few generations now. “You’ll need a good companion for this part of the ride,” Springsteen sang toward the end of the show in “Land of Hope of Dreams,” part of the tumult of climactic numbers. Maybe he didn’t mean that line as an actual rock ‘n’ roll direct-sales pitch at the time he wrote it, but he sure keeps living up to it.

Bruce Springsteen previews Syracuse concert with ‘plans to destroy your city’

Bruce Springsteen previewed this week’s Syracuse concert with a special message on social media.

“First time I came to Syracuse was 1973 and you were looking at the only two members of the E Street Band that were there 51 frickin’ years ago,” The Boss said in an Instagram video alongside original E Street Band bassist Garry W. Tallent on Monday.

“It said ‘Welcome Bruce Spring-stine,’” Tallant recalled.

It’s unclear if he was referring to a misspelled name (Springstein?) or a mispronunciation of the bandleader’s surname. A review in the Herald-Journal newspaper of that 1973 concert at the Onondaga County War Memorial misidentified the band opening for Chicago as “a five-member combo from New Jersey called Bris Christy .”

“50 years later and guess what? Me, this gentleman Garry W. Tallent, and the rest of the E Street Band have plans to destroy your city and rock you into the ground!” Springsteen said Monday.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are set to perform at the JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse on Thursday, April 18. The concert was originally scheduled for September 2023 but was postponed after Springsteen was diagnosed with peptic ulcer disease .

“You sing with your diaphragm. My diaphragm was hurting so badly that when I went to make the effort to sing, it was killing me, you know?,” the 74-year-old Rock and Roll Hall of Famer told E Street Radio host Jim Rotolo last month. “So, I literally couldn’t sing at all, you know, and that lasted for two or three months, along with just a myriad of other painful problems.”

More than 30,000 tickets have been sold for the Dome concert, which will be Springsteen’s first performance in Central New York since playing Vernon Downs in 2012 . Past Springsteen concerts also include performances at the War Memorial in 1973 and 1978, the Landmark Theatre in 1996, and the Carrier Dome in 1985 and 1992.

Here’s what else you need to know, according to Syracuse University’s website:

Tickets purchased for the original Sept. 7, 2023, date will be honored for the rescheduled date of April 18, 2024.

A few thousand tickets are still available for the Syracuse show through Ticketmaster (prices start at $74.40), as well as VividSeats , StubHub , TicketNetwork or SeatGeek . Attendees are encouraged to download their ticket on their phone before arriving.

Just a Few of the Biggest Concert Tours of 2024, from Olivia Rodrigo to Bad Bunny

Posted: April 17, 2024 | Last updated: April 17, 2024

Listening to your favorite musician at home is fun, but there's nothing quite like the experience of singing along with them, and tons of more fans, live. And as luck would have it, 2024 is shaping up to be a massive year for some of the world's top musical acts, so chances are your favorite performer might be stopping at a city near you soon.

Ahead, we rounded up some of the biggest concert tours of 2024, ranging from Taylor Swift's mega-popular Eras Tour to Drake and J. Cole's exciting It's All A Blur Tour - Big as the What?—set to kick off this winter. You can also expect tour dates from classic icons like Stevie Nicks, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, and more.

1) Taylor Swift

Undoubtedly one of the biggest concert tours ever, Taylor Swift's Eras Tour will continue right through 2024. The international leg of the tour kicked off in Japan, where she played four shows in Tokyo. She'll also stop in Melbourne, Singapore, Paris, Madrid, London, Milan, and more before returning to the States to play in the fall.

There's nothing like seeing T. Swift IRL, but don't fret if you're unable to nab tickets—the Eras Tour movie is now available to stream from the comfort of your home.

2) Olivia Rodrigo

This is not a drill—"Drivers License" singer Olivia Rodrigo will be hitting the road on tour starting at the end of February. The Guts World Tour runs from February through mid-August and has dates in Nashville, Toronto, Chicago, and New York City, among others. Even cooler? Rodrigo will have a stacked list of special guests—like PinkPantheress, Remi Wolf, The Breeders, and Chappell Roan—with her.

3) Red Hot Chili Peppers

Did you hear the good news? The Red Hot Chili Peppers have extended their global tour through summer 2024. The buzzy stadium tour, which kicked off in June 2022, will now run until July 2024 and bring the California-based band to places like Los Angeles, Tampa, Toronto, and Salt Lake City.

4) Bad Bunny

It's fitting that "Monaco" rapper Bad Bunny titled his tour Most Wanted —it's slated to be one of the year's hottest tours. Planned to help promote his latest studio album, Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana , Most Wanted will kick off in Salt Lake City on February 21 and run through May 26.

5) Billy Joel

If you haven't yet seen Billy Joel perform live, there's still time! The Piano Man has added more tour dates to his schedule, stopping in cities like Tampa, New York, Denver, and St. Louis this year. Even more exciting? He'll share the stage with fellow iconic performers Sting and Stevie Nicks for some of these dates.

Mitski recently announced that she's expanding her North American tour dates , and we couldn't be more excited. The months-long tour, which supports her 2023 studio album The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, has a long list of stops, including Miami Beach, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, and Paris.

There's nothing quite like a Madonna concert, that's for sure. The singer's Celebration Tour , which started last October, continues straight through the spring with dates in Seattle, San Francisco, Mexico City, and more. Besides her eye-catching sets, chart-topping songs, and impressive choreography, concertgoers also get a glimpse of the performer's fantastic costumes, which include looks from Versace and Jean Paul Gaultier.

8) Bleachers

The New Jersey-founded rock band, which is fronted by Jack Antonoff—known for producing albums for top acts like Taylor Swift, Lorde, and Lana Del Rey—not only has announced a new album but a new tour , too. The tour will start in the UK in March, ending fittingly in the band's home state of New Jersey in mid-June. Check out their newly released music video for "Tiny Moves" if you need a Bleachers fix in the meantime.

9) Nicki Minaj

Nicki fans rejoice: the rapper and singer might be coming to a city near you soon as part of her Pink Friday 2 World Tour. The massive tour will include performances in Brooklyn, Oakland, and Baltimore, with stops at Dreamville Festival and Rolling Loud California along the way.

10) Blink 182

Live out all of your nineties and early aughts pop-punk dreams with one of Blink 182's One More Time Tour dates. The tour, which supports the band's ninth studio album, One More Time..., will bring the trio to cities all over the globe, including Sydney, Santiago, Portland, and Boston. The tour's supporting act is Pierce the Veil, which is also worth checking out.

11) Stevie Nicks

The oh-so-magical Stevie Nicks continues her touring streak with a bunch of 2024 concert dates . Set to begin in Atlantic City, NJ on February 10, Nicks will visit a dozen cities throughout the U.S. this year, such as New Orleans, Omaha, and Chicago. "Let's keep this party going in 2024," the singer-songwriter posted on her Instagram in September to announce the newly added tour dates.

12) The 1975

The 1975 is showing no signs of slowing down. The British band, famous for hits like "Somebody Else" and "Robbers," has extended their 2023 tour through 2024. Titled Still...At Their Very Best , the 22-date tour will open in Glasgow on February 8 and conclude in Amsterdam on March 24.

13) Drake and J. Cole

Rap greats Drake and J. Cole come together for the It's All a Blur Tour – Big As the What? which is guaranteed to be a good time. Drake, fresh off his 2023 It's All a Blur tour with 21 Savage, is set to hit dozens of cities starting in February, many of which J. Cole will also be in tow for. Scoop up tickets ASAP, as Drake's shows are known to sell out.

14) Janet Jackson

Superstar Janet Jackson is also extending her 2023 tour, Together Again , into 2024 with dates in Anaheim, Austin, New Orleans, and Hartford. Even cooler? Jackson's supporting act is the 2000s southern rap legend Nelly.

15) Rolling Stones

If you've ever dreamed of seeing the Rolling Stones perform live in person, now's your chance. The iconic rockers, who released their studio album Hackney Diamonds this past fall, are returning on the road for a 16-date tour with shows throughout the United States and Canada. Concertgoers can expect a mix of new tunes and Stones classics.

16) Bruce Springsteen

Famous for countless listenable hits like "Born to Run" and "Glory Days," Bruce Springsteen is set to embark on a massive world tour this year with his band, The E Street Band. The much-anticipated tour will take the Boss and his crew to cities such as Phoenix, San Diego, Dublin, and Madrid, from March through November.

17) John Mayer

Be sure to catch John Mayer's solo tour this year, which will bring the guitarist and crooner to cities throughout Europe. This leg, an extension of his popular 2023 solo tour, will kick off in Stockholm on March 13 and finish in Dublin on March 29.

18) Shania Twain

Okay, this one is technically a residency , but we're excited nonetheless. Shania Twain, most known for her incredible outfits (her hooded leopard print look, anyone?) and hits like "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" is setting up shop in Vegas starting May 10. Twain's residency will take place at the Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood on and off throughout December 2024.

All good things must come to an end. The Eagles, known for "Hotel California" and other amazing rock songs, began their final concert tour this winter. It launched in Phoenix on January 20, with March 16 as its last date in the United States. Eagles fans won't want to miss this one.

20) Alanis Morisette: The Triple Moon Tour

Alanis Morisette joins forces with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts for their 2024 Triple Moon Tour , which has dates in North America and Canada. This tour is a great one to catch this summer, as it's slated to run from June through August.
