Bruce Springsteen setlist 2024: Every song he sang at world tour relaunch in Phoenix-InfoExpress
Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band relaunched their world tour in downtown Phoenix on Tuesday night.
The night allowed for a journey through his catalog, from his first album, "Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J.," to 2022's "Only the Strong Survive," a collection of soul and R&B covers.
The return came after Springsteen and the E Street Band cut the trek short in 2023 on the advice of Springsteen’s doctors as the star was treated for peptic ulcer disease, a potentially serious gastrointestinal condition.
At the time, Springsteen issued a statement saying, "Over here on E Street, we're heartbroken to have to postpone these shows. ... We'll be back to pick these shows up and then some. Thank you for your understanding and support. We've been having a blast at our US shows and we’re looking forward to more great times. We'll be back soon."

Springsteen announced that he was symptom-free on the Nov. 20 episode of his E Street Radio show "From My Home to Yours." Since then, the New Jersey native performed at the 2024 MusiCares Person of the Year ceremony, the 17th annual Stand Up for Heroes benefit and the New Jersey Hall of Fame induction honoring his wife and E Street Band member, Patti Scialfa.
He also appeared at the 81st Golden Globe Awards (where he was nominated for best original song for "Addicted to Romance"), alongside Darlene Love to present her with a platinum record for "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)," and multiple events at the Bruce Springsteen Archives & Center for American Music on the campus of Monmouth University in New Jersey.
