Info & Setlist | Venue

---

This show was originally scheduled for Seneca College's 1,000-seat Minkler Auditorium but due to ticket demand was moved to nearby University Of Toronto's 2,000-seat Convocation Hall, then switched yet again to Seneca's larger, 3,000-seat Field House. The various promotional memorabilia (see our News and Gallery tabs) tells the venue story. The listed 17-song setlist is the complete show. Final tour appearance for "Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town". "Thunder Road" is the slow version with Roy on piano and Bruce on harmonica and vocals. "Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)" includes a snippet of "Theme From Shaft" in the midsection. "For You" is solo piano.

Recording

Audience tape. The entire show was professionally recorded (along with several other shows in December) under the guidance of Jimmy Iovine as part of a plan to release a live album. No part of this recording has been heard in public. A reasonable quality audience recording of nearly the entire show is available on 'Bring Out The Hype', a boot that gets its title from a remark heard in the crowd prior to the start of the show. The original taper did not record "Born To Run" and "Pretty Flamingo" or the end and beginning of the songs immediately before and after it. A low generation upgrade of excellent quality is available as Volume 11 of the 'DS Archives' (mjk5510).
