Notes:
ONE show, triple bill, with the 5-member BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN BAND headlining. The support acts were acoustic trio NASH, LARGE & ROSS (who opened) and SUNNY JIM. This was an afternoon, outdoor show orchestrated by Tinker West’s Blah Productions. Garfield Park is located at the intersection of Broadway and Ocean Ave, near the ocean. The above-mentioned 10-song, partial setlist is culled from a 66-minute audience recording of this show. However this BSB performance apparently lasted nearly 2hrs, so there’s quite a bit missing.
The BSB line-up for this show is Springsteen, Van Zandt, Sancious, Tallent and Lopez. Although Bruce handles all the lead vocals, the performance is unusual in that Springsteen is on piano for most of the songs from this show. Sancious plays the organ and Steve Van Zandt handles much of the guitar chores. Tinker West guests on congas on “Dance Dance Dance” and the rousing finale “Jambalaya” (which also features an unidentified walk-on troupe of backing vocalists consisting of inner circle troops and members of both undercard bands). Highlights of this show are “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” (the only known Springsteen performance – and its great), as well as the only known audio of two Springsteen compositions, “It’s Time To Go Home” (also known by the title “Festival”) and “You Better Be Nice To Me”.

Notes:
ONE show 9:30PM to 1AM, with the Bruce Springsteen Band the sole act on the bill. A typical BSB gig at this club consisted of four 40-minute sets separated by healthy intermissions (2½ hrs total playing time).
As fate would have it, Norman Seldin & The Joyful Noyze (featuring its then-new member Clarence Clemons) was in the final stages of a 7-week (July 16 - Sept 5) residency at the nearby Wonder Bar. By comparing the common denominator times in both bands performing schedules it can be deduced that it was most likely on this night (or the night before) that Clarence Clemons walked over to the Student Prince during a Wonder Bar intermission and first met (and jammed with) Springsteen. Contrary to widespread belief (and Bruce and Clarence’s wonderful, but “embellished”, stories of the meeting) Clemons did not quickly resign from Seldin’s band and join Bruce – he remained a fixture in The Joyful Noyze until October 1972

Notes:
ONE show, with THE BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN BAND the sole act on the bill.
In an interview with Ed Sciaky (see 3/11/74 listing in BRUCEBASE) Bruce commented that he played "If I Were The Priest" (which Bruce said he wrote in the late 70 - early 71) at one of the shows during this residence at The Student Prince, although the specific gig is not known and there is no circulating audio of the performance.
