This show was the first of any event at the Meadowlands area; Bruce opened the arena this night. Released on CDR "Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, Meadowlands, NJ July 2, 1981" - this cd misses the last track. Also available on "I Never Seen Nothing Like This" which has all tracks and is sourced from 1st generation tape. Cadillac Ranch is uncut on some sources. This show made the local TV news mainly due to the crass case of ticket scalping surrounding Bruce’s entire Meadowlands stand. Short footage of the opening night’s first song, “Born To Run”, was also shown during these reports (which of course are circulating on fan-made DVD’s). Thanks to Lost In The Flood for the updates.
