Bruce Springsteen Ignites Manchester with his awesome performance

On May 14, 2025, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band launched their “Land of Hope and Dreams” European tour at Manchester’s Co-op Live Arena, delivering a performance that was as politically charged as it was musically powerful.

Before striking the first chord, Springsteen addressed the audience, condemning the U.S. administration as “corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous,” and urging fans to “raise your voices against authoritarianism and let freedom ring.” This impassioned prelude set the tone for the evening, which featured a blend of classic hits and politically resonant songs like “Land of Hope and Dreams,” “Long Walk Home,” “My City of Ruins,” and a cover of Bob Dylan’s “Chimes of Freedom.”

The performance was recorded and released as a digital EP titled Land of Hope and Dreams, capturing both the musical and rhetorical highlights of the night. Springsteen’s critiques did not go unnoticed; former President Donald Trump responded with disparaging remarks on social media, labeling Springsteen as “overrated” and “a dried-out prune of a rocker.”

Despite the political controversy, fans and critics lauded the concert for its emotional depth and unwavering commitment to artistic expression. The show not only showcased Springsteen’s enduring musical prowess but also his dedication to using his platform to address pressing societal issues.
