Bill in Providence wrote: This was my first Springsteen concert. Had been a fan since the summer of 1974 when I heard "Incident on 57th Street'' on the radio in Norwich, Conn. Myself and a couple of buddies from Connecticut College drove up to Providence for the show. It was very hot and Springsteen was spectacular. Racing all over the stage, swinging from a rope ladder behind the stage, jumping off the piano. I've seen him about 15 times since then, all over the country, but the four times I have seen him in Providence rank among the best. For some reason, he always seems pumped to play Rhode Island. I've always wondered why. Maybe because there is a lot of Jersey in Rhode Island.
