Audience tape of first part of show. The famous bomb scare show (aka "Are you loose?") Entire second set after clearing the building was put on a soundboard. This is the first known Little Queenie and is hilarious as the band had been in the bar for about 2 hours. The second set also exists on a audience shot film. CD releases "Milwaukee Bomb Scare Show" (Mistral Music) & "We Had Too Much To Drink Last Night" (BS).

Wanted - The Bruce Springsteen Bootleg Guide (Volume 1)
This brilliant show has been previously released on "We Had Too Much To Drink Tonight". Then it was in mono and in very good soundquality. This release is in stereo and has excellent sound. Unfortunately, the soundquality drops on disc two. There's suddenly a hiss presenton the first part. It gets a little better along the way. The two discs feature the part of the show after the band returned to the from their hotel after the place had been searched for explosives. Here you find the uncut version of the show. (The first version had blanks between songs.) This preserves the great atmosphere (partly created because Bruce had one drink too many at the hotelbar). Also the songorder has not been tempered with so you can fully enjoy this of this part show as it was actually performed.

Review (Courtesy of The Promise)
I am probably in the minority here, thinking that if Springsteen should ever decide to release one entire show it should be this one. Actually it is not even an entire show, for the opening few songs (mainly from Born to Run) are missing.
Some time into the show someone called in a bomb threat and the venue, Milwaukee's Uptown Theater, was temporarily evacuated. This set has been registered after the band returned to the building. And "let me tell you, there they was" pissed like hell. After spending some time in a bar, Springsteen and the gang reopen the show with a rousing version of Little Queenie preceded by a hilarious introduction during which Bruce repeatedly asks the audience "Are you loose"? This version of Queenie is in my opinion one of at least three classic performances from this night.
Following is the set, which technically was perhaps far from perfect, but was played like it was the band's last performance ever, or last live show on Earth for that matter. E Street Shuffle lazy and chatty as ever and full of soul, Saint in The City with some chilling guitar licks, then Bruce calls for "moment of silence, Steve's guitar broke": Sha La La follows played at punk speed. Fine performance of Jungleland closes the first disc.
The best version of Kitty's Back known to this reviewer opens the second disc. It is jazzy, it is messy and drunk, yet just when you think the whole composition is going to fall to pieces it explodes and returns again, and again, and again. Classic number two on this great disc. Rosalita together with an early and fine ("the favorite song in the world!") Detroit Medley are next and then the main set closes with an always beautiful version of Sandy.
As for the classic performance number three from this night it has to be Quarter to Three. It is played with passion and the a capella part seems extra long. At some point the band stops and Bruce has some fun with the audience asking if they "don't wanna go home?" Bruce ends the song with his famous confession: "I am just a prisoner of rock'n'roll."
After hearing this show you will be one too.
Soundwise, this is a soundboard, but not a perfect one, for there is some distortion in the beginning of Kitty's Back and the louder passages are a bit muffled. Still the sound is clear and bright, very "live," whatever that may mean.
I guess the best way I can describe it is that as far as live recordings are concerned, this one makes you feel like you were there in the first row. Boy, I wish. If you are going to own one live recording in your life this has to be the one.
Sound: 8-
Tracklist: 8
Performance: 9
Enjoy The Show
