It is rumored that the show was recorded.
Notes
- During TAD's set Krist did backing vocals at least on the two last tracks.
- During "Big Cheese," Kurt stopped playing, and Krist and Chad jammed.
- About a minute into "Mr. Moustache," Krist's bass stopped working, so Kurt and Chad finished the song without him.
- During "Breed" Kurt Cobain smashed his white Univox Hi-flier beyond repair in disgust due to the equipment problems, ending the show early.
