They were at a show in Seattle in '95 and "the club were just dicks to us, all night long, fighting us every step of the way...". When they got off for their between their main set and encore, security and the club was ready to call it a night but the band and fans weren't. They ended up going on stage for an encore performance of the song Speeding Motorcycle and played it and kept playing it because they were pissed off.

Yep. There's nothing brilliant or extraordinary about it, and it won't be profound to most people but I took a lot out of that passage and the book as a whole. It's changed how I look at music and especially how I look at the music I want to write, review, and take in.
