"This was my first Springsteen concert. I was 17. I had it on two bootleg cassettes and played them for 40 years until this was available. "

"I was there…started an obsession with Bruce on E street that I never left. "

"At last....40 years after hearing the bootleg that started the obsession! Thanks Nugs, it’s great!"
