Two months ago, we reported a delicious rumor about the possibility of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band performing a concert March 17 -- St. Patrick's Day -- at the Bradley Center in support of the album "Magic."
Although there has been no official announcement to date, we never doubted our sources.
In fact, we feel even better after what happened last weekend in St. Paul.
When Bruce and the band left the stage after a show at the Xcel Energy Center, a message flashed up on the video screens: "Bruce returns March 16. Tickets on sale Nov. 10 at 10 a.m."
Given the routing of previous tours, it stands to reason that a March 17 date in Milwaukee could follow the March 16 show in St. Paul.
We're also hearing rumblings about a possible stadium show this summer at Miller Park, which hosted the E Streeters in the final week of a tour in support of "The Rising."
Word on the street is that it could take place in August (during a Brewers road trip, of course) and that it may be tied to the 105th anniversary Harley-Davidson.
