Billboard magazine reported an attendance of 4,516 and gross receipts of $33,612. A review in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch recalls "Badlands" and "Thunder Road" as being played. A contributor to the Greasy Lake website mentions that "Quarter To Three" was played. In a 1978 magazine interview Clarence Clemons mentioned this gig as one of his favorites of the tour.

Michael Stipe is believed to have attended this show or the later Opera House show, noting that it changed his life.
