↪ Flying from Ringway Airport, Manchester, to Aldergrove Airport, Belfast, Northern Ireland. Apparently Jimi's management had asked for the JHE to be picked up in a white American limo, but the best the 'Festival Of Arts' people could come up with was a black Humber!
Accommodation: "Grand Central Hotel", Royal Avenue, Belfast.

↪ 'Festival Of Arts'/"Whitla Hall"/"Queens College", University Road, Belfast
Concert (two shows - 19.00 and 21.15).
Offstage, Jimi is incongruously mild, affable and unassuming. He sat in the dressing room, temporarily detached from the bevy of road-managers, and munched birthday cake. He constantly strummed a guitar covered in psychedelic patterns.
