01 Dancing in the street
02 Come on (the world is crying for freedom)
03 Sherlock goes Holmes
04 Garden state parkway blues
05 Run shaker life

Notes:
ONE show, double bill, with STEEL MILL headlining and LOTUS opening. The above-mentioned partial setlist is taken from a circulating 58-minute soundboard recording of good-very good quality. This audio has only partially circulated on a bootleg "Don't Sweat It" Vinyl in limited quantities and in poor quality. It is circulating in complete form via private CDR sources (usually identified only as “summer 1970” or “mid-1970” or “unknown location”). The audio seems to include the first 3 songs of the night and the final two songs, with “Run Shaker Life” cut very prematurely. This would represent only about half of a normal show’s length. Following a nice show-opening “Dancing In The Streets” Springsteen jokingly comments “it’s all happen’ out there in the street, so what are we doing in here”? During the epic “Garden State Parkway Blues” Bruce mentions driving through Ocean Grove on a Sunday, as well as the fireworks at the Freehold Raceway – both comments draw a noticeable crowd reaction. These comments indicate this audio is from an indoor summertime performance in the Asbury Park area. When combining the sound of the audience size, the track listing and the very limited gig bookings the band had during the summer of 1970 – these combined offer a strong likelihood this audio is from either this night or the following night’s Sunshine In show.
