The song is a stunning rip of Born to Run, woudn't ya say?  Well, all right.  It's got a bunch of Byrds and Who in it too.

TOTHK Bram Tchaikovsky -- BOS.

Let's hope this is the harbinger of a great set overall & not the highlight.

I never caught the BTR similarity, but it's a Byrds thing for me, mostly -- the Great 12-string Guitar Revival of '79! (Shoes, Records, the Searchers comeback...)

BOS2 Kinks.

Speaking of songs that sound like other songs...I think I'm having a Jumping Jack Flashback.  But like the previous song, good stuff.

This takes me back more than any other song, but didn't this come out in 78?
