Only one song on the album, "Negative Creep" is from the band's October 1991 show at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle. English music journalist Everett True, of "Melody Maker" magazine, who was also a friend of Cobain's, described the Paramount show as "the end of an era" that showed that "incontrovertibly, Nirvana was now big news". The full show was later released as "Live at the Paramount" on DVD in 2011, and on vinyl in 2019. Nirvana were scheduled to play a show at the Melkweg in Amsterdam on November 24, 1991, but due to popular demand the show had to be rescheduled to a larger venue at the Paradiso, Amsterdam which took place the next day and four of the songs on the album were taken from this show. In December, 1991, Nirvana embarked on a mini US tour with the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Pearl Jam, with three songs on the album coming from a show on this tour at Del Mar Fairgrounds, Del Mar, California on December 28, 1991. Only one song on the album, "tourette's", is taken from the band's 1992 headline appearance at the Reading Festival in England which Cobain introduced to the crowd as being called "The Eagle Has Landed". The full show was later released as "Live at Reading" in 2009.
