Yeah, that site is really just a variation on/a promo for his book.
Pretty funny actually, so much ado over one show.
But what a show it was.
It did have a lifelong effect on me.
So I guess it is worth a bit of ado.
And in honor of that, and this thread, I'll put up a couple of shots I took (with my friends camera) from that night that I don't think I've posted before...
And this one, which I didn't take but I've always loved because I was standing no more than ten feet to the right of the great Michael Zagaris when he took this shot. It always brings back memories...
Lance did you contact Jarid to relay your Winterland stories? There's a cafe on the corner of Steiner and Sutter that I stopped in once and in the bathroom were some great photos of Winterland. At first I didn't get the connection. As far as defunk skating rinks, there was one on 48th/Kirkham in the Sunset that we played broom ball hockey at. I couldn't imagine actually skating on that ice!
We were driving by in 85 when they were tearing it down and there was a pile of stuff, and my friend stopped and we loaded up his truck with these big wooden beams. He used them to build a house near Covalo.
I always thought it was cool that there was a cabin house in the middle of nowhere whose bones "heard" some incredible music.
wow 12/31/1968 - i can see where i started the second dead set in that picture- atabout 4am on the 01/01/69 near the top of the back balcony - beyond epic and where and when he bus pulled me firmly on >>viola lee blues did it, and it was geographically convenient, my brothers roommate drove me and my provided ticket - god bless jon crab and that 64 mustang too

I guess it was too long.

Meh.
Full thoughts fleshed out are still a good thing, despite the common modern way of dumbing everything down to one-syllable, half-sentence gruntings.
Actually, it's been a long time since I've penned a long essay here, but it's my zone image and I like to play into the simplistic perception.
Shallow end of the pool stuff, but so much easier.
And perception IS reality, after all.
Anyway, here's another shot of the wonderful, legendary room, just before the wonderful, legendary madness began (I didn't take this one either)...
