There have already been several high points on Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band’s 2024 tour, and Sunday night’s show in Columbus, Ohio, provided another one.
The Boss and co. turned in an epic three-hour, 30-song set that saw “Youngstown,” “Streets of Fire,” and “I’m Goin’ Down” all performed live for the first time since at least 2017. The choice to kick off the show with “Youngstown” was especially appropriate as it was written about Youngstown, Ohio, located just two-and-half hours away from Columbus. Meanwhile, “Streets of Fire” has only been performed by Springsteen 23 times since 1978, and not since 2017.

The setlist also included “Racing in the Street,” which was played thanks to a sign request. Springsteen and the E Street Band wrapped the show with an epic nine-song run that included (in order): “The Rising,” “Badlands,” “Thunder Road,” “Born to Run,” “Rosalita,” Bobby Jean,” “Dancing in the Dark,” “Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out,” and “Detroit Medley.”
Sunday’s show in Columbus marked the end of the first leg of E Street Band’s 2024 North American tour. Next month, they’ll kick off a run of UK/European shows, before returning to America in August for a second leg of stadium shows. Tickets can be purchased here.
