A Bruce Springsteen tribute band is set to take to the same Newcastle stage this weekend as the star did 41 years ago.
The Sound Of Springsteen will play at the O2 City Hall in Newcastle’s city centre on Saturday, 10 September. The band follows in the footsteps of the legend himself, who played at the venue in May 1981 .
Backed by his E Street Band, Springsteen treated Tyneside fans to his biggest hits as part of a mammoth 140-date world tour for his album The River. The show was so electrifying that the Born To Run singer would later go on to say that Newcastle was in the top three best shows of the whole tour.
