Notes
  • Probably spurious. Ronnie Tutt (red suit) was with Elvis (Blue Egyptian Bird attire with original belt) in Tulsa, OK, and not having found any ads or whatnot for Independence Day in the Bicentennial Year, I am a little skeptical that this ever happened. The songs we list are said to have been the first three of the show. I have not found ads or listings in the Examiner, the Barb, or the Sunday pink section (Examiner and Chron) for the GAMH, except pimping Malvina Reynolds starting 7/9. Odd silence in these materials for the GAMH, let alone Garcia being there.
  • Historical
  • The U.S. celebrates its Bicentennial.
  • Many outdoor festivals and shows are held all over the United States as the country celebrates its bicentennial. Elton John performs for 62,000 at Shaffer Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts, while The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac play for 36,000 at Tampa Stadium, Lynyrd Skynyrd and ZZ Top draw 35,000 at Memphis Memorial Stadium and Elvis Presley performs for 11,974 at the Mabee Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
