Springsteen Adds More "Working on a Dream" Shows To Tour

Having victoriously headlined both Bonnaroo and Glastonbury, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will return to the modest confines of stadiums and arenas as New Jersey's finest announced a new batch of fall shows in support of the band's Working on a Dream.

In addition to Springsteen's previously-announced (and nearly completely sold out) five nights of farewell shows at New Jersey's demolition-bound Giants Stadium, Bruce has also booked two concerts at New York's Madison Square Garden on November 7th and 8th, ensuring that the metro tri-state area will get their share of Working on a Dream shows.

“I'm Yours”

Jason Mraz | 2008

Jason Mraz re-emerged after his disappointing second album with this lead single, a Jack Johnson-esque ditty about giving yourself fully to someone else. The success of the reggae-tinged song (it earned two Grammy nods and a spot on the Billboard singles chart for well over a year) was something the folk-pop singer never predicted when he wrote it in 15 minutes at home. "I played a happy-hippie chord progression that would probably work without 50 different Bob Marley songs," he told Rolling Stone. "I thought, 'It's too novelty. This is a nursery rhyme,'" concluding that "you can never guess what's gonna be a hit."
