Springsteen delivered on a promise to mix up his setlist by breaking out 'Viva Las Vegas,' 'Racing In the Street' and 'Roll of the Dice' at Vegas gig.
took the stage at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and delivered on that promise. The surprises began when he opened up the show with the 1992 deep cut “Roll of the Dice,” which he hadn’t played in seven years. They continued later in the set when he broke out “Hungry Heart” and “Racing in the Street” for the first time since returning to the road in 2023.
A segment of hardcore Springsteen fans that attend multiple shows per tour were frustrated with the setlist throughout the course of last year since it stayed largely the same from night to night, though it did start to loosen up by theThey’d grown accustomed to wildly unpredictable nights throughout the 2010s where Springsteen would pluck signs from the audience, and play virtually any song from his catalog at a moment’s notice.
But when he called up E Street Radio earlier this week, he told host Jim Rotolo that things were going to change. “We’re approaching it like it’s a new tour,” Springsteen said. “There will be some things from last year’s tour that will hold over, some of my basic themes of mortality and life and those things, you know, I’m going to keep set…I think I’m gonna move around the other parts of the set a lot more, so there’ll be a much wider song selection going on.
The tour continues March 25 at the Pechanga Arena in San Diego, California. “There is a little cafe in California down San Diego way,” Springsteen said in a goofy Instagram video along the E Street Band, quoting his 1973 classic “Rosalita .” “I’m Bruce Springsteen. On March 25, we plan to come down there and look for that son of a bitch. Write it in your diary. March 25. It is the day you’re going to lose your mind and we’re going to make sure of it.
