More about Tramps Like Us concert re-creation of the August 15, 1975 show at The Bottom Line in NYC...

With a brief presentation and introduction by Mike Appel,Bruce's former manager and producer will kick off the night with a special introduction and Q&A session with the audience to set the scene for this special event as it was back on that historic night in 1975. Tramps Like Us will then take the stage to perform all songs and versions in order as was done that night. This is the second time ever that an entire Bruce Springsteen concert has been recreated... both times by Tramps Like Us. The first concert re-creation was the legendary September 19th, 1978 concert at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic, NJ. That show was met with rave reviews and was a COMPLETE SELL-OUT at BB KIng's in NYC. More info on that show HERE.
Tramps Like Us will perform an additional hour or more of Springsteen tracks spanning to 2009 following the 8/15/75 concert re-creation. Some of the additional tracks will be highlights from their Capitol Theatre concert re-creation. "Prove It All Night" with its amazing, extended, not-played-anymore piano and guitar solo intro, and the extended "Backstreets" with its rare "Sad Eyes" will be some of the selections that will be featured by request.
