Notes
  • Reviewer Ruchman says second show better. Donna Jean a little awkward and self-conscious when fronting the band", which implies we have "A Strange Man" (were there any other DJG lead vocals?). He also mentions FOTD followed by TWYDTTYD, and LAALWFH as the late show closer.
  • Sue: Wage agreed upon: $5,000 plus $1,500 light and sound, plus 60% gross receipts over $9,000. The last piece generated $808.50. Gross potential $12,000. Tix $3.50 general, $5 general. Boxoffice report makes it look like the band got $9,000, but I am not sure what to make of that.
  • TJS traditionally listed one two-set show, but this is wrong. There were two shows.
  • preview: "Jerry Garcia to play here," Oberlin Review, February 26, 1976, pp. 1, 8: Social Board Chairman Jeff Libson wouldn't reveal the fee, but seemed confident that it'd work out. Apparently deal was finalized ca. 2/25/76 (could be 2/18) following three days of negotiations.
