I was at this show! In fact, on the cover of a book, "Rock and Roll Memories in Cleveland" there is a picture of my friends and I waiting in line to get in that evening! We had decided to see Southside because we'd seen Bruce a few months earlier. What no one knew was that Springsteen had his limo bring him to the Agora after his Cleveland Coliseum show ended. WE WENT NUTS when Bruce walked onstage. Absolutely nuts. What a great evening that turned out to be. Classic!!!

The version on the live Reach Up And Touch The Sky (1981) is also worth hearing!

Bruce played this at Helsinki last night!!!!!! (31st July 2012). Although it was hardly recognisable as the song on this video as he played it slowly with an acoustic guitar. Has he ever played this since 1978??

I didn't even realise it was one Bruce had written always assumed it was one of Southside Johnny's.

I'm 15 and I only listen to Classic Rock and hip-hop and I think the same thing.

I think they played this video on Cleveland television, which was then WJW Channel 8. Bruce had played the Richfield Coliseum that night. Earlier in 1978, The East Street Band took this stage for a concert broadcast to about a dozen cities, produced by WMMS Buzzard Radio. It's a shame there is no video of that. It was rockin'.
