Support: Royal Crescent Mob

Notes: Sounds like a capacity crowd was in attendance. The stage is 30 feet in diameter and completely round, exposed to the audience on all sides. An unusual feature of the theater is that the entire stage can turn through four complete revolutions at a speed of up to 0.5 rpm, thus allowing everyone in the audience to see every part of the stage at some points during a performance. None of the 2650 seats in the theater is more than 70 feet from the stage.

Supporting: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Notes: Strange show. The bands seems tired and over all it’s a pretty low key show, even with the inclusion of ‘Customer’ and ‘Gary’s Got A Boner.’ Rare live performances of ‘Cruella DeVille’ and ‘Cool Water’ probably didn’t impress the Heartbreakers audience. ‘Gary’s Got  Boner’ and ‘Take Me Down To The Hospital’ may be from another show - the recording sound slightly different.
