Saw Nitty Gritty open up for Black Oak there summer '72. About 25 vehicles, including myself (w/7 passengers) parked in the lost of a closed Gulf station close by. When we came out after the show, all 25 of us had 4 flat tires, the valve stems lying with the valve caps next to the tires. KCMO police sent a wrecker w/a compressor to get our tires up. It took a while, we lived in Clinton, 90 miles of bad road away, & the parents of the 4 young ladies with us had to be called. We got home at 4:30 AM. Wild night.
