    Notes
  • Some sources list Vitt as the drummer, but ad lists Billy K.
  • JGMF: Legal Aid for Unnamed Angels
  • Legal Aid Benefit for Richmond Hell's Angel Badger, which Cutler neglected to specify to Wolfgang (Cutler 2010, 316). Graham: "Was I lied to by omission? Yes. Was I lied to by Mr. Cutler? Yes. For now, the money is going nowhere. Not because it was for an Angel, but because I was lied to. They used me. When I am used, I want to know by whom. What a sad commentary on our supposed 'inside' community. Now, we're in the gutter" (Wasserman 19731005). Sam reports that after finding out, Graham said "Cutler, you motherfucker, I'm going to break your arms and legs" (Cutler 2010, 316). Norm Van Maastricht (2009, 25) tells a funny story of being surrounded by "huge, evil-looking bikers" backstage at this gig, his buddy unwittingly grabbing a beer from their cooler and skee-daddling out of there. JLW 19731012 reported that the $11,051 raised will be paid evenly to the four bands that played, to be distributed as they'd like.
