On a night that many believe is a watershed moment in Bruce Springsteen's career, Bruce Springsteen dazzles the audience with his performance. Originally not scheduled to be on the bill, my suggestion to the promoters that they book this act led them to meet Bruce and offer him the opening slot for a show that had originally been created to only feature Bonnie Raitt. This evening would later be reviewed by Jon Landau who would pen his infamous quote "I saw rock and roll future and its name is Bruce Springsteen". Many believe this moment helped propel Bruce's career and laid the groundwork for future success
