There's a huge fireworks place outside of chattanooga near the Tennessee/Alabama border. There's a picture of jim and someone outside of it on the inside of the album. Not sure who the other person is though. They're standing in front of the fireworks place looking up at the huge neon sign that says TENNESSEE FIREWORKS but the "works" is left out of the picture. I don't really know the story behind it though.

Here's the picture. Looks like Jim on the left and no idea who's on the right. Anyone know?

The place was demolished very recently-Tom posted on instagram about it. Thankfully I snagged a pic there in May before it went down.

this photo is actually from the At Dawn & Tennessee Fire Demos Package, taken in 2005 on the road to Bonnaroo. the one on the right is a photographer/journalist, don't remember his name.

I always just took the cover itself to be a blurry picture of a hotel pool.
