Bruce Springsteen refuted rumors that he’s thinking about retiring.

The Boss addressed the crowd during a Philadelphia concert last week to set the record straight, per recently posted footage circulating on social media. 

“We’ve been around for 50 f***ing years and we ain’t quitting,” Springsteen said. “We ain’t doing no farewell tour bulls***. No farewell tour for the E Street Band.”

The 74-year-old recording artist continued, “Farewell to what? Thousands of people screaming your name?”

Despite his enthusiasm for touring, Springsteen has experienced health issues in recent years, which have affected multiple scheduled concerts. The singer rescheduled some stops in European cities earlier this year due to vocal strain. Last September, Springsteen postponed more than 20 shows due to “peptic ulcer disease,” as The Daily Wire previously reported.

“Over here on E Street, we’re heartbroken to have to postpone these shows,” the New Jersey native shared in a statement posted on social media at the time, noting that he had to follow his doctor’s orders. “We’ll be back soon. Love and God bless all, Bruce.”

Springsteen’s current tour wraps up in November. 

The rock and roll star has a career spanning 60 years and is one of the most well-known artists of all time. He’s sold more than 140 million records worldwide, making him the 27th best-selling music artist ever. Springsteen, whose best-known hits include “Born in the U.S.A.” and “Born to Run,” is a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and boasts 20 Grammy Awards, two Golden Globes, an Academy Award, and a Special Tony Award.

Besides just having a grueling tour schedule, Springsteen has also been blamed by other musicians for setting expectations of playing for hours. Some of his shows include him and his band playing for up to four hours straight.

Former Beatles band member Paul McCartney discussed the trend last summer. 

“These days, it’s pretty much the main act, and there might be a warm-up act,” McCartney told late-night host Conan O’Brien in July. He said that never used to be the standard.

“Now, people do three, four hours. I blame Bruce Springsteen. I’ve told him so. I’ve said, ‘It’s your fault,’” McCartney continued. “You can’t now do an hour. We used to do a half hour. That was like The Beatles’ thing. Half an hour, and we got paid for it.”
