Bruce Springsteen Gives Brisbane A Whole Lot Of Rarities

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band treated Brisbane to his deepest cuts so far with a setlist of rarities leaving even the most die-hard of fans gobsmacked.

The rarities heavy night features three songs from the ‘Tracks’ compilation, three from ‘Lucky Town’, one from the ‘Chimes of Freedom’ EP and ‘Secret Garden’, the song exclusive to 1995’s ‘Greatest Hits’.

‘Janey Don’t You Lose Heart’, a Born In The USA off-shoot originally the b-side to ‘I’m Going Down’, ‘Back In Your Arms’ from the rarities compilation Tracks, ‘Leap Of Faith’ from ‘Lucky Town’ and ‘Secret Garden’ were all played for the first time on this Australian tour in Brisbane last night.
