Info & Setlist | Venue

First of two shows, with Bruce and the boys the sole act on the bill. Each show was 80-90 minutes in duration and included an opening 'solo' segment featuring two or three songs, followed by a band segment. This show was detailed in Springsteen's first major interview, published in the March 1973 issue of Crawdaddy! magazine. The listed four songs are mentioned in the article. The first two were played acoustically and the last two were played with the band. These are the earliest known live versions of "Song For Orphans" and "Blinded By The Light". It's unclear if this discussion refers to the early or the late show; we have listed the songs here.
