Bruce Springsteen Setlist at New Jersey Show 2026: Bruce Springsteen performed a special show in Newark, New Jersey on April 20 during his 2026 Land of Hope and Dreams Tour. Fans usually expect surprises at his home shows. This time, the setlist was mostly the same as his recent concerts. He has been performing a similar set since early April.
He added a cover of “Clampdown” by The Clash earlier in the tour. He also changed one song, with “Two Hearts” replacing “Out in the Street.”
This tour focuses on telling a story through the songs. That is why the setlist stays mostly the same each night. He still performed big hits like “Born to Run” and “Dancing in the Dark.” Tom Morello also joined him for some songs.
The show started with “War” by The Temptations. Then he performed “Born in the U.S.A.” right after.
