If by chance any of you have 'visited' cantfindtickets.wordpress.com over the last 17 hours, I think you'll know why I've never been happier to share a blog post than this one!
What else is interesting here is the beginnings of what would become standard in the first set on the River tour, and that's weaving a spoken narrative around the songs. 'Our story starts in the darkness on the edge of town...' 'next to the Heartbreak Hotel there was this factory...'. It's pretty simplistic and doesn't add the depth and nuance that the stories linking things like Indy Day, Factory, This Land Is Your Land etc. would in a few years time, but it is different to the standard MO at the time which was more just unrelated stories before Thunder Road and in the middle of Growin Up.

This show is why there is an Archive series.
Never been this excited by a new release in a while...
The force of the band as they hit Spirit is just jaw dropping. I cannot believe how good this is.
