Full article:

Anders Stefansen (promoter): We had to choose between Friday-Saturday-Sunday. We took the Sunday because we expected the weather to be great that weekend, then people would return from the beach or the forest Sunday evening and they could go to the concert. That turned out to be right. There were not many tickets sold in advance but people came running Sunday evening and we got sold out. He was a real musician, he just loved to play. There was never any problems.

Peter Throrup (member of support band, The Beefeaters) : We had taken some different drugs that evening, and we played some improvised tunes. I remember Jimi standing and looking at us with a big smile.
