Springsteen, E Street Band to play Cleveland, Pittsburgh

THE VINDICATOR

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will play Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena on Nov. 4 and Pittsburgh’s Mellon Arena on Nov. 14. on their first full-scale tour since 2002-03.

Tickets will go on sale through Ticketmaster on Sept. 14 for the Pittsburgh show, and Sept. 15 for the Cleveland show.

Prices haven’t been announced yet.

The 16-city tour begins in Hartford, Conn., on Oct. 2, the day the new Springsteen album, "Magic," will be released.

A new song, “Radio Nowhere,” was leaked to the Internet and at least one radio station (Youngstown’s WNCD-93 FM), causing Columbia Records to try to curb its exposure.

As of Tuesday, however, the song was being offered as a free download for one week through iTunes.

On tour, Springsteen will be joined by E Street Band keyboardist Roy Bittan, saxman/percussionist Clarence Clemons, keyboardist Danny Federici, guitarist Nils Lofgren, vocalist/guitarist Patti Scialfa, bassist Garry Tallent, guitarist Steven Van Zandt and drummer Max Weinberg.
