Springsteen expressed his passion for performing, stating, 'Hell no… Farewell to what? Thousands of people screaming your name?'

During a concert at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia on August 23, Bruce Springsteen confirmed that he will not be retiring or announcing a farewell tour with the E Street Band.

His remarks come amid ongoing speculation about his health, as he has postponed several concerts over the past year due to health issues.

Earlier this year, Springsteen had to reschedule multiple tour dates, including three European shows, due to vocal issues and treatment for peptic ulcer disease.

The Philadelphia concert was originally planned for 2023 but was postponed to allow Springsteen to address his health concerns.

Despite these challenges, he surprised fans this summer with guest appearances, including a duet with Zach Bryan in Philadelphia.

Looking ahead, Springsteen has a series of tour dates scheduled for the remainder of the year, with stops in Baltimore, Montreal, and Toronto.

The E Street Band's next performance is set for September 7 at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C., before they return to Europe next summer.

He emphasized that after nearly 50 years of performing, there are no plans for a farewell tour, asserting, 'We are not going to stop or do farewell tours. Never in my life.'

Springsteen further connected with fans by questioning, 'What would I be retiring from? Thousands of people shouting our name?'

Guitarist Steven Van Zandt also weighed in on the retirement rumors, confirming that the E Street Band intends to continue touring, especially in Europe.

He passionately declared, 'We ain’t doing no farewell tour bulls---!' while expressing excitement about future performances.
