Of course if one was young in 1966 or so it is hard not to remember the anthem of the generation ( in somuch as one can remember anything from that era <s> ) Later, living in SF, I was at the Red Octopus concert at Winterland ( about 1976 or so, I believe ) I think that was the apex of the Starship. Danny Kortchmer on slide guitar and Papa John Creach on fiddle.

Fast Buck Freddie tore the roof off the place and Miracles and Play on Love were extended jams that were a whole lot more self-indulgent that the recorded versions, but then the audience had been indulging pretty heavily so it worked <s>

Winterland, by the way, was probably the best concert venue I've ever seen. It was an old ice skating rink. Gallery seating in balconies on three sides but the main floor was open. It was wooden, overlaying the original ice rink, and would vibrate from the floor to ceiling - three story high - stacks of speakers on either side of that stage. A very physical experience and a mosh pit before CBGBs. ( this was also the site of the Last Waltz, immortalized by Martin Scorseze in his movie )

Of course Grace did White Rabbit in the encore.

I will always have a soft spot in my heart for Bill Graham - truly one of the great empresarios of any age. The Diaghilev of rock
(WOW in checking the spelling of Diaghilev I just found the Wikipedia in Catalan! Anyone who has any interest in language should check this out http://ca.wikipedia.org/ )

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
