Twist And Shout##

## Song missing from this radio broadcast, though it was played after WMMS went off the air.

Notes: Broadcast on WMMS radio in Cleveland, OH. By early August, the Darkness tour was hitting full stride, with Bruce opening with either Badlands or rare covers, such as Rave On, Sweet Little Sixteen, or Summertime Blues. The Sad Eyes portion of Backstreets is heartstopping, and the intros to She's the One, whether it be Mona or Not Fade Away coupled with Gloria just rocked the house. August 9, 1978, featured all of the above and was one of the highlights of the 78 tour. The story during Growin' Up was the Teenage Werewolf, which became legendary.
