Notes:  This is a very good recording from the end of the "Rising" tour -- the last show 
outside of New York (the final three dates were at Shea Stadium October 1st, 3rd, and 4th). 
There is nothing shocking here, setlist-wise, but there are a number of songs in the set
that were somewhat underplayed on the tour -- for example, "Brilliant Disguise," "Who'll
Stop The Rain," "Across The Border," and "Cadillac Ranch."  Altogether, a strong and 
unpredictable setlist.

Roy Bittan strapped on an accordion a half-hour into the set to play "Beer Barrel Polka" at
an audience member's request.  A rousing version of "Cadillac Ranch" was played as a final 
encore, as it is in most shows Bruce does in Wisconsin.

I was standing in the GA section about 30 feet from the stage on the right-hand (from the
audience perspective) side.  There were very few people around me, oddly enough, and there
is very little crowd noise as a result.  The mix changed improved a half-hour into the show;
tracks 1-6 do not sound quite as good as the rest of the show does.  Overall, it's a vastly
better recording than you would expect from Sonics in a baseball stadium, but my location was
perfect.

I was very happy with the quality of this recording, and this turned out to be a great 
performance.  This isn't one to download if you are limiting yourself to picking up, say, 
2-3 shows from the tour, but definitely worth having if you typically grab most good "Rising"
setlists/recordings you come across.  I think E Street hit their peak at the end of the tour.

Enjoy the show!
