1978-06-06 Indiana Convention Center, Indianapolis, IN
| Brucebase Reader | I can confirm the strippers story, Bruce introduced them as "some friends that Clarence made this afternoon". Apparently Bruce was surprised when they appeared - I don't think he was expecting them to actually come on stage from the wings. Springsteen opened with "Badlands". |

After leaving the stage after their last set to thunderous applause, they returned for an encore and I believe there were three young ladies in long dresses and high heels came out with them, who were introduced as friends they met at the Red Garter Lounge (which we knew was a "Gentlemen's club" in Indy). The girls starting dancing as the band performed, then to my amazement, they proceeded to wriggle out of their dresses and continue dancing and singing with the band in only their skimpy bras, garters, panties and high heels – I was amazed! The crowd went wild! |
| Lisa Shore | This was my first ever Bruce concert. I'm up to 63 times now since 1978. |
