"4th Of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)" has its fourth and last performance of the tour, and its first ever performance in Australia. All soundcheck songs are partial; "Long Time Comin'" is just a brief bit of guitar, "Across The Border" is just the falsetto part, and "4th Of July Asbury Park (Sandy)" is instrumental only. After the soundcheck, Bruce gives a short interview to Molly Meldrum.

Recording

Audience tape. Released on CDR 'Melbourne First'. Also available on the CDR "Almost Drowned On Bondi Beach" ^(Westie), on this version "The Line" and the intro to "Balboa Beach" appear to be taken from a different show as the quality is much improved over the balance of the show and on verified tapes of the night the intro story is different. Video of the soundcheck and interview circulates as well.

Eyewitness

John

Intimate Bruce, just the man and his guitars! At a great venue in St. Kilda, The Palais Theatre. This was the first night I heard Freehold and Red Headed Woman! Got pretty close to Bruce after the show down the side at the stage door as well. It was a shame this was in the days before we had a phone with a camera in it at all times.
