What Time Will Bruce Springsteen Perform in Philadelphia at the Ballpark?
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are on a new leg of the tour as they hit stadiums across the US, after spending much of the summer on the road overseas.
We don't know EXACTLY what time Bruce will perform. But it's likely they'll hit the stage around 7:45.
Earlier this week he hit the stage between 7:45 and 7:55 at Wrigley Field in Chicago.

Normally we are able to dig into some clues on Twitter and the website setlist.fm to gauge what the artist's setlist will be before a concert, but with Bruce Springsteen that's difficult. The band is known for changing this up each and every night.
But we pieced together a list of songs that we expect The Boss to perform. Click here to check it out.
Though, every night on this tour has been different so far. So we kind of expect that to continue. It is, however, safe to say that Bruce and the band will perform both the massive hit songs and their more obscure fan favorites from their expansive discography.
