One five-hour, triple bill show, with Bruce and the boys headlining. The undercard bands were Heavy Trucking (first up with a 60-minute set) and Southern Conspiracy (who played an 80-minute set). Although held indoors at the ever-popular Ledge Club, the show was delayed for about an hour due to moisture from rainy weather outside affecting the electrics. According to a newspaper review Bruce opened the show with one acoustic song and immediately brought on the band, and played for over 90 minutes. The review also mentions that the band include tuba and accordion players, which perhaps suggests that "Wild Billy's Circus Story" and "4th Of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)" were included in the set.
