Warm up and benefit show with the mother of all mixed-up setlists - many songs being played for the first time in a long while and some never played before. Bruce opens with a trio of solo acoustic songs, as he will do on the upcoming World Tour 1993. "Does This Bus Stop At 82nd Street?" is first, last played December 31, 1975 at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby, PA. "I Ain't Got No Home" follows, played only once before, during the Human Rights tour. World live premiere of Born In The U.S.A. outtake "This Hard Land". It will become a regular on the tour after this show, all versions acoustic. "Local Hero" is an extra long version with Bruce slowing the song down twice. First known live performance of "Viva Las Vegas", it'll be played just twice in the tour. Last known performance of "All The Way Home" until 2005. Last "Tougher Than The Rest" until 1996 (solo) and 1999 (with the band). Live premiere of "When You're Alone", performed acoustically. It'll return for a handful of performances in the latter stages of the 1996 leg of The Ghost Of Tom Joad Tour. "Point Blank" is the first of two acoustic versions for the tour, played on the guitar by Bruce alone. Only ever appearance of "Achy Breaky Heart", apparently played in a spur of the moment. First performance of "Blinded By The Light" for some seventeen years, last played in April 1976. "The Promised Land" (last heard at the final Human Rights Now! concert in Buenos Aires) is played on the guitar by Bruce alone. Max Weinberg guests on "Glory Days". Only the second ever "Janey, Don't You Lose Heart" closes the set, played by Springsteen alone. Next performance of the Born In The U.S.A. outtake will be August 7, 1999 in New Jersey during the Reunion Tour. "Roll Of The Dice" includes "Everybody Needs Somebody To Love".

1993-12-06 - VARIOUS LOCATIONS, PHILADELPHIA, PA

STREETS OF PHILADELPHIA

Video shoot for "Streets Of Philadelphia". Directed by Jonathan Demme, the shoot is understood to have taken place over several days at various locations in the city. For example, the playground with the chain-link fence and "Don't Believe The Pipe" mural is on South 4th Street in south Philadelphia. Springsteen later donated $45,000 to spruce up the playground. The vocal track for the video was recorded "live" by Springsteen, utilizing hidden microphones. The same technique was used for the "Brilliant Disguise" music video in 1987, "Better Days" in 1992, and once again in 2002 for "Lonesome Day".
