Springsteen To Perform During Super Bowl Halftime





Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band will perform at this year's Super Bowl halftime show in Tampa; the NFL and NBC announced Sunday night.

Continuing a run of major talent that has lately included the Rolling Stones, U2, Paul McCartney, Prince, and Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, the biggest television event in the nation will showcase one of its most beloved rock 'n' roll artists. The Super Bowl will be played February 1st at Raymond James Staduim.

Last year's halftime show was watched by more than 148 million viewers in the U.S., the NFL said in its release. It wasn't always that way: For years, the game's halftime show was made up of local and college marching bands and drill teams.
