Springsteen announced a nine-stop book tour Monday that will begin at a bookstore in his childhood hometown of Freehold on September 27.

Springsteen highlighted the set with six tunes from The Rising, his 2002 album released following the attacks, with much of the lyrical content referencing that day.

Following on from a memorable sold out tour in 2014, The Boss and The E Street Band will undertake one of their biggest Australian stints yet across January and February, taking in Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Mt Macedon and Hunter Valley. The legendary musician is scheduled to greet fans at the book signing in Harvard Square on Monday, October 10, from noon to 2 p.m.

Springsteen’s book tour will also stop in New York; Seattle; Los Angeles; San Francisco; Cambridge, Massachusetts; and Portland, Oregon.
