Notes
  • At the building then known as Fillmore West, but not promoted by Bill Graham and advertised as Carousel Ballroom, so we use that name here. Shades of Joy with Martin Fierro. Sellout, made $7k for the community radio beneficiaries. Great party. Hot Tuna appeared at the last minute. Dead played a 2 1/2 hour set ending at 3:30 am.
  • According to Corry342 at Lost Live Dead blog, It's been confirmed that the correct date is 3/3/71 (via email exchange with Corry 8/2/18). The date on the poster is a misprint.
