Well, I saw 6 shows from the following River tour at the LA Sports Arena and Miami Steve was doing all the lead guitar work. The band still rocked the house and it wasn’t Bruce doing the lead. And then Nils joined up and it was between him and Mr. Miami from all my experiences. Once and while Bruce would do some, but it was never the same as the Darkness Intensity.

It’s not that he gave lead guitar chores to others, but they never included so much solo stuff again and, besides, he started to share it more, so his awesome guitar performances became less common, so most people dont know how outstanding he is :(

I know he’s not one of the best guitarists ever, but no one else makes me feel the way he does when he plays that telecaster.

Their best tour and one of the best tours ever in rock history. Simply unbeatable :)

The Boss is the boss!! Awesome. Loved his 4 hour concerts. Playing his ass off on guitar, jumping on the piano, all that good stuff!

I saw two of these 1978 shows at the Palladium . I also taped his free concert on WNEW-FM. The intensity ran right thru the whole concert. After this tour and No Nukes, Bruce grew up. By 1984 he was a “success”. I always like the “loser” style better. Que Sera Sera….

Collecting stories and photos from hundreds of fans, The Light in Darkness book celebrates this classic record, allowing readers to revisit the excitement of that moment when the needle found the grooves in that first cut and the thundering power of “Badlands” shook across the hi-fi for the very first time. Or the uninitiated, but soon-to-be-converted teenager, brought along by friends and finding salvation at one of the legendary three-plus hour concerts – shows that embodied all the manic fury

I remember reading that he had just finished up dealing with Mike Appel and the outcome had just left him in an angrier state of mind than usual. Who knows? But if this was true, Man it showed on stage! His intensity level jumped a full notch this tour. There was a new anger in his hurt soul of a voice. More Powerful as if that were possible.

AGREED! Saw him in August of ‘78 and fell in love.

My favorite tour. Hands down. After this, he allowed others to handle the lead guitar chores. Very unfortunate. No one since has given me chills like Bruce did on lead guitar. Check out “Street of Fire” from the 78 tour. Outstanding!!! Chills just thinking about it. My all time favorite concert experience.

If you’re talking about the Darkness box set I must say you’re dreaming. This will not be the concert to be released, I am willing to bet my bucks it will be the Houston Coliseum one from December 8, 1978.

This is what makes The E Street Band and Springsteen so great… they perform every song as if it was their best.

Nicely put. Oh to have a DeLorean and a fully working flux capacity so we could all go back in time & watch Bruce in his pomp from 75 leading up to the amazing gigs of 78!!
