Notes:
-
With the show being held on a Sunday night, Jon jokingly told the crowd to call up their bosses the next day and say “Jon told me I could have the day off”.
- The shows are getting back to their “normal” format as the first encore with Living In Sin and All Right Now gets dropped as well.
-
Reviews of the band’s shows at the time remained rather the same, with most journalists giving the band credit for their
high-energy, catchy performances but at the same time slating them for the lack of depth in music and Jon’s constant back and forth with the critics during his speeches. The “Boston Globe”
reviews this concert the next day with the words “high-school sock hop music, pure and simple” which pretty much summarized most of the articles in
that time frame.
