From Brucebase: Audience tape and above average pro-shot video with a few rarely played tracks. According to some sources the video tape survives as sound was recorded by hanging a microphone from the roof beams. The Springsteen camp insisted the sound was disabled on the in-house system to prevent bootlegging after the Largo show in 1978. Fortunately enterprising Capital Centre employees hooked up the microphone and ran a cable to a VCR recorder in an arena sky box. Roy plays the piano intro before “The River“ and “Once Upon A Time In The West“ as a bridge between that song and “Badlands“. “Growin' Up“ features the spaceman story. Bruce sings the opening of “Come A Little Bit Closer“ as an introduction to “Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)“. Johnny Burnette and the Rock 'n Roll Trio's “Lonesome Train“ is included in the “Detroit Medley“ for the first time. The medley does include the “all aboard“ segment, but “I Hear A Train“ is dropped. The MC that introduces Springsteen is the legendary Washington-area DJ Don “Cerphe“ Colwell.
