Bruce Springsteen to Tour the US?

Bruce Springsteen wants to tour the US next year.

The musical legend will embark on a five-week tour of South Africa, Australia and New Zealand with his group the E Street Band in February, just five weeks after his LP High Hopes is released, but he admits he'd like to visit America at some point in 2014 as they haven't played there since 2012.

"I don't want to say yes because I don't want to disappoint people, but I certainly don't want to rule it out either. We're looking closely out at since there's places we missed on the last tour. We didn't get to Texas, where I love to play. We didn't get to Florida either. It might be fun to get back to some of those places," he told Rolling Stone.

Meanwhile, the 64-year-old star previously revealed that his new album will feature tracks he has played live or recorded in the past, but which had never made the cut - until now: "This is music I always felt needed to be released. From the gangsters of 'Harry's Place,' the ill-prepared roomies on 'Frankie Fell In Love' (shades of Steve and I bumming together in our Asbury Park apartment) the travelers in the wasteland of 'Hunter Of Invisible Game,' to the soldier and his visiting friend in 'The Wall,' I felt they all deserved a home and a hearing. Hope you enjoy it."

Bruce Springsteen Gearing Up for a Busy Winter

Springsteen fans will be celebrating a belated Christmas in early 2009. In addition to a high-profile concert in February, the legendary musician will have two new albums in stores next month.

On January 13, Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band will be offering up a Greatest Hits edition. The disc - which will be exclusively sold in Wal-Mart stores - will focus solely on songs Bruce recorded with the band. (You can see a track listing after the jump.) Two weeks later on January 27th, Working on a Dream will then make its debut. The album will consist of entirely new songs produced by four-time collaborator Brendan O’Brien.

Both releases will lead up to Springsteen’s primetime appearance during Super Bowl XLIII’s halftime show. The game will be held in Tampa, FL on Feb. 1.
