Info & Setlist | Venue

---

One show, double bill, with Bruce and the boys opening for headliners Chicago. The eleventh of thirteen consecutive shows and the first concert at the new Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena. The listed seven-song, 45-minute setlist almost certainly represents Bruce's complete show, bearing in mind the strict time limit Bruce was under for these Chicago shows. The show includes a brief (but unique) rendition of "Take Me Out To The Ball Game" (played in response to Bruce breaking a string), as well as two new songs, "Phantoms" (aka "Over The Hills Of Saint George"), and "Seaside Bar Song", which would not be played again until 2001.

Recording

Audience tape. This performance available via a good quality audience recording of forty minutes duration. The set closer, "Thundercrack", is not complete; "Secret To The Blues" and "Spirit In The Night" are marred by minor edits. Previously only available in poor quality, a new transfer emerged in March 2013 from the JEMS Archive. The fidelity of this tape is a material upgrade over all previous copies and is well worth acquiring.

Storyteller

113.06.73 Binghamton, NY, intro to “Take Me Out to the Ballgame”
“There I was…in right field, it was a make-up game…it was a nice Sunday morning…I’d just rolled out of bed…I was standing out there thinking “Man, I hope nothing comes to me”…no sooner did I say that…than BSSHHH!! here it came, the highest ball I’ve ever seen in my life…it was scary…so I started running for it…got underneath that ball…down it came (?) on my glove and hit me in the head…very embarrassing…I made believe I was knocked out and they dragged me off the field…(?)(starts singing the song)…”
