Here's a good eye witness account of that show:

"November 1969, Auburn Al. Chuck Berry opened... I remember that it was a cold November night and the first show was sold out with fraternity/sorority couples in attendance dressed in blazers, starched white shirts, ties. The late show, and it did start late, went well after midnight, was sparsely attended. I was standing right at the stage for both shows. At the late show I remember looking over my shoulder and the whole coliseum was virtually empty... The Stones blew the roof off the dump that night. It seemed they put even more energy into the nearly empty late show..."

Friday, November : Memorial Coliseum, Auburn University, Auburn, AL, with
Terry Reid and Chuck Berry, 4:30 and 10 p.m. The trip to Auburn was not
pleasant... by advance man Bill Belmont, the Stones' chartered plane left
without them and the band had to jump on the only flight available to
Columbus, Georgia. Michael Lydon noted, “It's a four hour plane trip"...
