AUD #3

It is rumored that the show was recorded.

According to Pollstar magazine, Nirvana played to a sold out crowd of 7,922 people.
Kurt screamed his way through the second verse and chorus of "Lithium".
After "Scentless Apprentice", Kurt threw down his guitar and stormed off the stage, ending the show early, upset that he was hit in the head by a shoe from the crowd.
