Show Notes
Oakland '99 The final night of a three-show stand in Oakland finds Springsteen performing at his Reunion tour best. The 24-song set gets off to a bang-bang start with "Adam Raised a Cain" into "Prove It All Night," and that energy carries on through "Atlantic City," "Youngstown" and "Murder Incorporated." Equally compelling is a stripped-down reading of "The Ghost of Tom Joad" and the only full-band performance ever of another Joad track, "Sinaloa Cowboys." Southside Johnny makes a special guest appearance on "Hungry Heart" and the encore closes with a rare, romping rendition of "Blinded By The Light."

Reviews
Adam — 6/5/2025
"Best performance of Independence Day I’ve ever heard, wow! "
Eric Taylor — 5/22/2025
"I was at this show. Although I had been a Springsteen fan for almost twenty years by this time, this was the first time I had ever seen the full E Street Band live (thanks to a series of unfortunate events, I missed the Oakland Coliseum shows in 1985) I cannot tell you how happy I was to see this recording available! As for the show itself - the second encore, particularly the last two songs, stood out in my memory from the show (and is how I knew this is the correct show from the three Oakland dates of that tour) - and are beautifully captured here. "
