Danny Kirwan was by all accounts falling-down drunk. At this point in his career he had taken to excessive consumption of alcohol and was on his way to being sacked later that year (by his one remaining friend in the band Mick Fleetwood.) He can be heard tripping over equipment and causing feedback during this performance, shocking his bandmates enough for them to remark about it. Within the next couple of years he would be spotted wandering the streets of London, homeless.

During this show, Mr. Kirwin manages to finish the vocals on "Little Child Of Mine", but the band struggle to keep up with the uneven pace he has set for them. Bob Welch takes over guitar lead from him during the song. Kirwin tries to sing "Black Magic Woman", but is unable to and Bob Welch has to finish it for him.

Even with all of that going on, the band still manage a fine performance.
