Since we got 2009-11-07 in December, I'm guessing this one since it's one of the few with "Wild Billy's Circus Story"  and there are only two other 2013 shows. I confess, another Wrecking Ball tour show is not exciting for me so I hope I'm wrong.

2013-07-28 Nowlan Park, Kilkenny, Ireland


 

"I've done my best to live the right way"

It's only a dream, but this one has Billy and Blinded

I nave no time to search for more (and the prisoner?)



1974-03-03 - GASTON HALL, GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY, WASHINGTON, DC

Soundcheck: SPIRIT IN THE NIGHT

WILD BILLY'S CIRCUS STORY / INCIDENT ON 57TH STREET / NEW YORK CITY SERENADE / SPIRIT IN THE NIGHT / THE E STREET SHUFFLE / WALKING THE DOG / 4TH OF JULY, ASBURY PARK (SANDY) / BLINDED BY THE LIGHT / KITTY'S BACK / FOR YOU / ROSALITA (COME OUT TONIGHT)

IIRC the word acrobat was only used in Mary Queen Of Arkansas but to me it could also be a hint for Daring Young Man On The Flying Trapeze. Not sure if diplomat was only used in Blinded By The Light. Prisoner might be Adam Raised a Cain or Back In Your Arms.

So I think it's MSG - June 27, 2000 since it has Mary Queen, Blinded and Adam.

I sure hope you're right. It fits the clues and 6/27/2000 is definitely far better than Kilkenny. I assume as fabulous as 3/3/74 would be (incredible NYC Serenade) they don't have a good enough recording (even if it was broadcast) to release it.


 

"I've done my best to live the right way"

From the clues it could be a recording of a Max's Kansas City 1973 performance.

The song "Visitation at Fort Horn" which was played during shows at this time contains a reference to a prisoner.

As mentioned by others, the other references would be Acrobat = Mary Queen of Arkansas, and Diplomat = Blinded by the Light, both songs that featured in setlists around that time.

If it is a recording from around that time, it could be the complete 31st January 1973 shows, we know both shows that day were recorded......

Fingers crossed for the first pre 1975 show from the Archive!
