SPRINGSTEEN SET FOR SUPER BOWL SHOW

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN will perform at next year's (09) Super Bowl after months of rumours reporting the rock veteran will take centre-stage at the event.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band´s performing in concert the last show in European tour at Camp Nou, Barcelona, Spain - 20.07.08

Sprinsteen and his E Street Band is slated to headline the half-time show at the NFL showdown in Tampa Bay, Florida - the biggest event in the U.S. TV calendar - according to American football bosses.

But one person who won't be happy with the rocker playing the half-time show is R+B hunk Usher, who hoped his NFL season kick-off performance earlier this month (Sep08) would help him land the coveted Super Bowl half-time show.

He said, "I don't think it's too early to consider it. Certainly, being associated with the organisation makes that a lot more possible. There have been conversations for a lot of years about me being part of a performance at a Super Bowl.

"I'm hoping that this leads, definitely, to that. This whole process is basically you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours."

Other recent Super Bowl headliners have included The Rolling Stones, Prince and Tom Petty + The Heartbreakers.
