  • The circulating recording cuts in during "Kotton Krown" so it's possible more was played earlier, like "Teenage Riot" and "Hey Joni" (and "Eric's Trip"?). Likewise, there is no encore on the recording, but traditionally "Silver Rocket" was done on this tour.
  • Show took place in Geelong, about an hour outside of Melbourne.
