Spirits In The Night Setlists Mention the "Darkness
Tour" to a Bruce fan and chances are his or her eyes will start to sparkle.
It is by many fans considered the greatest tour of Bruce's career, which is the
same as saying the greatest tour in rock 'n' roll history by anyone. When it
started it was like letting a wild animal out of its cage. The band roared
through the US playing longer and longer shows, always trademarked by Bruce's
chainsaw guitar solos and his willingness to drain himself completely, both
physically and emotionally.

| The E Street Band lineup: Bruce Springsteen: guitar, vocals Roy Bittan: keyboards Clarence Clemons: saxophone, percussion Danny Federici: organ Garry Tallent: bass Max Weinberg: drums Steve Van Zandt: guitar |
