Notes
  • Promoted by Paul Gongaware, who is now a big time Hollywood producer, for Concerts West. Capacity from band itinerary. Sue: band $5,000 guarantee plus $1,500 lights and sound, gross potential $15,900 . Seems like they could have gotten more. I wonder if the unusual arrangement here, with no percentage but an extra $1,500 cash, relates to the $1,500 that Chuck and Sue Kesey got for the previous gig? As if this whole little NW jaunt was to raise some money for the Creamery? NB also that the contract language changes, and they start asking for the balance of the money at intermission. I wonder if they got burned, or if there's nothing in particular signified here?
  • review: [negative] Wendeborn 1976; laments the slow tempos: "interlude music", "dulling effect", "downer vibes", "draggy"; "There's certainly nothing wrong with playing any tune at slow tempo, but so many in a row just fogged up the senses".
