Filmed during a concert in Barcelona Spain back in 2002 - here's the classic DANCING IN THE DARK!!!

Follow the tweeter feed on @springsteen and you'll read the best kind of concert reviews for a tour... ever. With everything from fan elation over a certain song to the up to and beyond 4 hour shows - Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band have been blowing the doors off for audiences on their Wrecking Ball Tour. Surely their show alone would be enough to get you to Magnetic Hill on Sunday, August 26th, but on the off chance you need more incentive...

Concert organizers have just announced two more stellar acts have been added to the bill... Juno Winners Tom Cochrane & Red Rider along with East Coast's award winning The Trews.

It's going to be an amazing show and tickets are still available www.tickets.moncton.ca or by phone 1-800-720-5600.

The word we’ve all been waiting for has been issued – THE BOSS is Moncton bound.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will be swinging the Wrecking Ball Tour firmly at New Brunswick's Magnetic Hill on Sunday, August 26th.

Last summer’s U2 concert was huge (post) and there’s no doubt Springsteen will draw just as many as the near 75,000 record crowd - if not more.

A member of the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame - Springsteen has sold over 120 million albums world wide, won 21 Grammys, 2 Golden Globe Awards and an Oscar...and oh my goodness can the man put on a show!!!

The Wrecking Ball Tour kicked off at the Philips Arena in Atlanta GA on March 18^th and is currently slated to roll across the US and into Europe well into the summer.

The video above is a clip of “Death to My Hometown” that was performed on that opening night.

The Wrecking Ball Tour in Moncton, NB August 26 – – Magnetic Hill. General admission tickets will be $115 plus service fees.

TICKETS ON SALE next Saturday April 21, 2012 at 1oam AT tickets.moncton.ca

FYI - The only other Canadian date on the tour thus far precedes NB - that's August 24 in Toronto, ON , Canada– Rogers Centre (Tickets on sale April 20 – ticketmaster.com)
