Bruce Springsteen [ tickets ] and the E Street Band will hit the stage tonight for the inaugural show of their 2008 tour, and fans can soon catch video highlights from the tour online.

The group's latest round of North American roadwork kicks off in Hartford, CT, and subsequent stops are lined up through the end of April; as previously reported, Springsteen and company also have a late-July, three-night stand lined up at Giants Stadium on their home turf in New Jersey, and an Aug. 30 performance in Milwaukee as part of Harley-Davidson's 105th Anniversary Celebration. Details are included below.

Tour video highlights will be posted at The Boss' official website, according to a press release.

Springsteen and the E Street Band continue to back their latest release, last October's "Magic." Earlier this month, the "Magic" cut "Radio Nowhere" scored Grammy awards in the Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance and Best Rock Song categories.
