Finale show (rescheduled from December 6) and excellent from all accounts - Sam Moore in particularly fine form. First performances of the stand for "96 Tears", with Garland Jeffreys, "Talk To Me", with Southside Johnny, "Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa (Sad Song)", with Sam Moore (in its only known Springsteen performance, featuring a snippet of "Hey Bo Diddley" in the intro), and "Merry Christmas Baby", also with Moore. The Victorious Gospel Choir opens the show by performing "Hold Out Hold Out" without Bruce.
