The Philadelphia 76ers and Flyers both advanced to the second round of their respective playoffs Saturday, but those victories have come at a price: Bruce Springsteen\u2019s Philly show has been postponed to May 30.<\/p>\n
Springsteen and the E Street Band were set to play Xfinity Mobile Arena on May 8; however, the venue is now needed to host the Sixers\u2019 Game 3 matchup against the New York Knicks. The Flyers\u2019 Stanley Cup playoff schedule \u2014 and Springsteen\u2019s own itinerary<\/a> \u2014 further complicated rescheduling the concert, which will now take place 22 days later.<\/p>\n More from Rolling Stone<\/p>\n \u201cDue to the NBA and NHL playoff schedule, the Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band concert at Xfinity Mobile Arena has been rescheduled for May 30,\u201d Springsteen\u2019s official site announced Sunday. \u201cAll tickets for the previous date will remain valid for the new date.\u201d<\/p>\n The Land of Hope and Dreams Tour\u2019s Philadelphia show was originally sandwiched between a bunch of New York dates \u2014 May 5 at Elmont\u2019s UBS Arena, a two-night stand at Madison Square Garden, and May 14 at Brooklyn\u2019s Barclays Center.\u00a0(Thankfully, Springsteen managed to sidestep the Knicks\u2019 home playoff games: A potential Game 5 at MSG will take place May 12, a day after Springsteen\u2019s May 11 gig at the venue, and a Game 7 at the Garden on May 17 will also narrowly miss the band\u2019s May 16 show.)<\/p>\n Now, the Philly show will serve as the final gig of the trek, taking place after the previous closing show on May 27 at Washington\u2019s Nationals Park.<\/p>\n Best of Rolling Stone<\/p>\n Sign up for RollingStone’s Newsletter<\/a>.
