BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN Announces NJ "Album Nights" for Giants Stadium

      MUSIC NEWS - The Boss has announced that he and the E Street band will play full versions of three of their classic albums during the series of shows that begin this week and that will mark the final concerts (ever) at New Jersey's Giant Stadium.

They'll perform their 1975 classic "Born to Run" on two nights of the five-night run, tomorrow night's (9/30) performance and the October 8 show; on October 3 and October 9 (closing night) you'll hear 1984's "Born in the USA", with 1978's "Darkness on the Edge of Town" at the October 2 gig.  In addition to the album sets, the shows will also include a mix of songs from Springsteen's career.

The five NJ shows start up the final 2009 leg (itinerary below) of Springsteen's tour supporting his "Working on a Dream" studio album.  The run started back in May and will likely be the last chance to see Bruce and band for quite some time, at least according to guitarist Steven Van Zandt recently gave to reporters on a conference call who said the band will be taking a break.
