Great news!

Great news, and very interesting how it “comes to him”....
And then about a month or so ago, I wrote almost an album’s worth of material for the band and it came out of just… I mean I know where it came from, but at the same time, it just came out of almost nowhere. I had almost two weeks of those daily visitations and it was so nice. It makes you so happy. You go, ‘Fine, I’m not fucked.’ There’ll be another tour.
That is such good news! Makes my day big time!
Something I read into the last two sentences: There will be no tour for 'Western Stars'. What do you think?
Sorry for posting this again. Somehow I missed it the first time. Thanks Carlo.
Good news can't be posted often enough :-)

Yep. I am "reading" that too. Maybe it's just wishful thinking. But then again... Summer 2020? Wouldn't be too bad.
Okay, in my classic SPL pessimistic view, I read "I wrote almost an album’s worth of material for the band" and thought "that's not good". Didn't he leave 20 songs on the cutting room floor when he used to do albums? If that's the case, I hope he has a lot more than 1 album's worth of songs.
Then I thought "don't be greedy, this means new music and a new tour!". All is well.

Agreed, see you in Summer 2020!

A good new record before the tour is something we all wish for, that's for sure (read E Street record).
But I see a good record as a bonus. I will get the chance to see the E Street Band one more time on the road. It's not my wish that they play a 20 song set with "just" Badlands, Promised Land, Lohad, Born to Run, Dancing, BitUSA, ..., but if it will be like that, I'm thankful anyway!
