Attention Jonmc: You and a select number of your downloading friends have won tickets to a benefit concert on May 2, 1975 at the Main Point in Bryn Mawr, PA. The Boss will be waiting for you there.

During what sounds like a restringing break, Bruce tells the story of how he met Clarence Clemmons. It starts at about 02:00 into the 12:00 of Track 4 - E Street Shuffle

Just don't point out that I misread the date, and the show was actually on Feb 5, 1975, and we'll call it even. ;-)

I think this so far back that Thunder Road was still called 'Wings For Wheels.' Great peek at the evolution of a song.

(sadly the location where The Point used to be is a storefront now, selling exercise equipment)

Don't go there, man. It's an RIAA sting for downloaders, man.

Thanks for uploading that. A 6550 can count on someone named Triode.

I can't wait to listen but it will be awhile as my DSL isn't the fatest ever.
