I was lucky enough to see the Darkness Tour come thru L.A. in '78. The Forum wasn't even sold out. Even from the cheap seats, and thru many shows since, that one sticks out in my mind. The band was so incredibly tight and for whatever reason, the mix was crystalline, especially Springsteen's guitar. Hopefully I'll be saying the same about the 2012 shows!

This IS the best version of Prove It All Night! I remember hearing this a long, long time ago, can't remember, but I can't thank you enough for posting this! Rock On, Brucester!

My first Springsteen show! The history of the World must be on YouTube...Thanks for posting. I think tickets were something like $15, to see him in a venue that seats approx. 4,000 people! Next time around, in Winter of '81, it was the Omni, which held well over 15,000...And we had to camp longer for those, then we did for the Fox seats. Great memories!

I agree! Unfortunately, Bruce doesn't do much of the heavy lifting when it comes to guitar work in the live shows nowadays. Quick riffs and short bursts of brilliance these days, is about all we're treated to.

why dont they do this long intro anymore .. its the best

he was never better....incredible.

@moniqqaaa Reasonable question. Bruce sang 'Santa Claus' here because his 1975 live version was an FM-radio favorite at the time, plus he would not be back to Atlanta again before Christmas. Don't mind @LACADEMONIO just left Christmas Spirit In The Night in his other life.

Incredible guitar work. Still one of the best around.

@moniqqaaa don't be such an idiot dud. It's a freaking song not a walmart sales discount, he can sing it whenever the fuck he wants asshole

Winterland and Largo versions are also pretty incredible.
Has there ever been a better consecutive run of songs on a setlist than Promised Land - Prove It All Night - Racing In The Street - Thunder Road - Jungleland? Most artists would give anything to have songs of that standard to finish their show, in 78 Springsteen was using them to finish out the first set!
