Chris never half bakes anything. She is a true professional song writer and performer. Her band was amazing and she seemed to be enjoying herself. I have the Jackson, NJ bootleg on CD. Her band is so tight. 2 highlights. I love the echo effect on "The smile I live for" and her dedication to 6 Flags Amusement Park in Jackson, NJ on May 18, 1984. She dedicates Songbird to the city and a horrific tragedy that happened just one week before her concert there. 8 teenagers got trapped and died in a horrific dark ride tragedy. It is assumed that there was a light bulb that burned out and someone used a lighter to find their way out which ignited the entire ride. Her Songbird that night is quite emotional.

Here is a list of some cities the tour stopped in:
