Chuck Hutsler remembers:
"The admission fee was $5.00 per
car load and they had quite a strong showing. My most vivid recollection
of this show was that the band sounded better than Zep and during "Black
Cloud", one of the roadies pulled Glenn's pants down, exposing his red
bikini briefs, giving all the ladies in the crowd quite a thrill."
