Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are always a huge hit when they hit "Thunder Road." The beloved American band will kick off their tour March 18 in Atlanta, Ga., and will finish out in Helsinki Finland at the end of July. The tour will come just two days after Springsteen releases his highly-anticipated new album, "Wrecking Ball." The live shows will be his first since 2006.
