La fecha definitiva para el concierto de Bruce Springsteen en Badalona será el domingo 14 de mayo. Tanto Shorefire como Sony Music emitieron ayer el comunicado oficial de la gira con una fecha errónea donde se indicaba que el concierto sería el 13 de mayo. Horas después han corregido el error y confirman que el concierto será el 14 de mayo.
