The Black Crowes was recorded in the last section under the pavilion. My batteries were dying and "Hard To Handle" has speed issues. I had a battery change after that song.

I originally had lawn seats, but then a security guy noticed my tape deck and asked if i wanted to get under the pavilion to get a better recording. (I probably should have stayed on the lawn). I handed him $10 bucks and he said i was on my own. find a seat. cool. But when i got inside, security was a pain my arse. Luckily, they never checked my ticket, but twice when i was flicking my lighter to check the counter on my tape deck. some security dork actually climbed over 5 rows of seats to try to catch me smoking a joint i guess. The first time he gives me a warning for i don't know why. Then later i flick my lighter again and he does the same thing and climbs down over the seats and then threatens to kick me out of the venue if i did it again. I wasn't smoking anything. It was really strange that i was being hassled for no real reason. Overall i had a decent time, but at the time, didn't care for some of the long drawn out versions. But years later i learned to love their entire live catalog. I just needed something more straight forward that i recognized.
