The Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. Tour began on October 28, 1972 at the Hollinger Field House at West Chester State University in West Chester, Pennsylvania and ended on September 8, 1973 at Flagstaff Hill in Schenley Park at the University of Pittsburgh. The tour was originally scheduled to end on September 22, 1973, however, a series of concerts at the end of the tour were cancelled and never rescheduled as more time was needed to complete the mixing of Springsteen's second album, The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle.[1][2]
