Notes
- As per "FM Workers Strike For Rights," Rolling Stone, April 27, 1968 "The community turned out in force for a benefit at the Avalon Ballroom on March 20, where music was provided gratis by the Grateful Dead, Charley Musselwhite, Kaleidoscope, and three other bands. The Family Dog made the hall available without charge". Blue Cheer are confirmed by a witness, so possibly only two of the other bands appeared. A poster for the benefit listed a completely different lineup - All Men Joy, Blue Cheer, Ace of Cups, Black Swan, and Creedence Clearwater Revival, which could be an early tentative list, or bogus.
- Setlist is derived from attendee recollection in deadessays comment.
