You might have to be flexible if you&#8217;re ready to pump your fist to Badlands, because things at Xfinity Mobile Arena are getting a little crazy this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>After the Sixers&#8217; impressive Game 7 win in Boston Saturday night, the schedule for their second round series has already been determined. They&#8217;ll play at Madison Square Garden on Monday and Wednesday nights and then return home to Philadelphia for Games 3 and 4 on Friday and Sunday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Springsteen, who kicked off his Land of Hopes and Dreams Tour back in late March, is slated to take the stage at 7:30 p.m. on May 8. The Sixers and Knicks are tipping off just after 7 p.m. If that schedule is out already, the NBA is probably taking precedence.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Springsteen fans purchasing tickets on Ticketmaster were notified that postseason scheduling could require the concert to be postponed or cancelled when they got their seats. It looks like that&#8217;s about to happen.<\/p>\n<p>The problem is, the Flyers are still alive and kicking as well, and they&#8217;re playing their own Games 3 and 4 in South Philly on Thursday and Saturday nights respectively. So they can&#8217;t simply move it back a day.<\/p>\n<p>The next open date for Springsteen to play in Philly would be Monday, May 11 \u2014 the day he&#8217;ll be playing Madison Square Garden in Manhattan.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>His politically charged tour is purposefully planning to wrap up with a final date in Washington, D.C. on May 27, leaving limited time for this show to be rescheduled. He&#8217;s playing shows every two or three nights for the next three weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Could they simply move his show to another venue? It happened with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phillyvoice.com\/florence-machine-philly-concert-moved-atlantic-city-nhl-playoffs\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Florence + The Machine earlier in this spring<\/a> postseason, with a Flyers playoff game forcing the band to move their show to Atlantic City. Finding a similarly sized venue might be tough with this short notice, unless he plays outdoors somewhere (Friday is currently looking to be sunny with a high of 66 degrees, it&#8217;ll be in the 50s after the sun goes down).<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s quite the conundrum \u2014 and one Philly sports fans are probably not feeling sorry about. Springsteen will find a way to play in front of the Philadelphia faithful one way or another.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15.36px;\">Follow Evan on Twitter:<a data-original-title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/evan_macy\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">@evan_macy<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15.36px;\">Like us on Facebook:\u00a0<a data-original-title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/phillyvoicesports\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">PhillyVoice Sports<\/a><\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Excited to see Bruce Springsteen this coming Friday?
