Branching off from his rock and roll roots, Bruce Springsteen commenced his current tour with songs made famous by folk musician and SHOF inductee Pete Seeger. Backed by an 18-piece band, Springsteen played folk tunes, including We Shall Overcome, an anthem of the U.S. civil rights movement, and Bring Them Home, an anti-war song dating to the Vietnam War era. John Fogerty will begin a six-week tour of the U.S. on July 22nd in support of his live DVD, The Long Road Home, which was just released. SHOF inductee Willie Nelson will open all but two of the shows
