Eyewitness

Chis	I remember when Bruce was standing on the speakers about ten feet off the floor during "Quarter To Three". He was shouting "I'm Just A Prisoner.." before collapsing on the stage. Clarence revived him with a sponge, and he got up after about a minute and finished singing "…Of Rock 'n' Roll!". During "Spirit In The Night" he did his usual routine and went into the crowd, this time he went further than normal with Clarence trailing behind him playing his sax and Bruce singing the lyrics. He got close to me, and I got a chance to touch him when he was singing the line "me and Crazy Janey". I was so excited! When the silent part ended; he jumped back up and with Clarence right behind him, they ran back through the crowd onto the stage.
Jeff	The set list was very similar to Kansas City later in the month. Only concert I have still ever attended where NOBODY was selling tickets outside, all the people outside were trying to buy!
Bill Schneider	I swear — he was standing on top of the spreakers and he jumped down like a giant cat. And I remember him out in the audience… grabbing a reporters pad and telling him he better be writing a good review. My first show. I wrote a review for the Gazette. They were incredible.
