The Who return to Leeds University. Desperate for new material and trying not to supply the same show they recorded there in February, The Who cut more songs out of Tommy and replace them with covers of "Daddy Rolling Stone," "Cinnamon Girl" and "Alright Now." According to Record Collector magazine: "John Bisbrowne recalls Townshend telling the audience, “We are back here to pay our royalties,” an acknowledgement of the crowd participation that aided the live album. When the band were sent their £1,000 fee for playing on 14 February they forgot, or did not bother, to cash the cheque. It was paid again when they returned on this subsequent night."
