Bruce Springsteen 1992–1993 World Tour
The Bruce Springsteen 1992–1993 World Tour was a concert tour featuring Bruce Springsteen and a new backing band, that took place from mid-1992 to mid-1993. It followed the simultaneous release of his albums '' Human Touch'' and '' Lucky Town'' earlier in 1992. It was his first of four non-E Street Band tours, later followed by the Ghost of Tom Joad Tour (1995–97), the Devils & Dust Tour (2005), and the Seeger Sessions Tour (2006). The tour was not as commercially or critically successful as past tours, due to poor reception of ''Human Touch'' and ''Lucky Town'' as well as changes from previous tours. According to Springsteen biographer Dave Marsh, die-hard fans have informally referred to the backing band as "the Other Band" (and the tour as "The Other Band Tour"). Itinerary The tour was preceded by a June 5, 1992, U.S. "dress rehearsal" radio broadcast of the new band. Springsteen said, "I missed playing. I missed getting out. I missed the fans. I've been home a while. ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
