Info & Setlist | Venue

---

A reader contributed his memory of the night and states that he recalls "The Fever" as part of the set, but this is unconfirmed. Set includes the first "Detroit Medley" of the tour. Billboard magazine reported an attendance of 6,630 and gross receipts of $49,090. This particular night was the special broadcast of a two-hour special radio show on King Biscuit Flower Hour (KBFH) which was a series of interviews and mostly album tracks but also included two live cuts from July 1.

Recording

No known audio. A reader pointed out that the boot LP 'Lip Sync In Cincinnati' is from this show but it turns out that the boot is actually a selection of tracks from September 19, as is "Cincinnati '78", so there is no known audio circulating from this show.

Eyewitness

Mike Rogers

This was my very first Springsteen show. I recall that setlist as well. I also recall the part of the show when Bruce collapsed, faking exhaustion. EMT's came on stage and took him off. I sure didn't know he was faking it, because just like everything Bruce does seems so real. He returned and my life has never been the same, some 40+ years and 36 shows later. We also got to see the sound check.
