Notes
  • Sue: "Benefit ($1,000 promotional expense -- money loaned by Garcia Band to be repaid.) Promoter to pay all travel expenses incurred by J.G. Band and Crew for this engagement." That last bit is funny. I still don't think they're careful enough -- you don't want to commit to pay the expenses of the J.G. Band and Crew under any circumstances. I am sure they could wipe you out in a heartbeat. NB that the travel group was three couples: Keith and Donna Jean Godchaux, John Kahn and Maria Muldaur, and Jerry Garcia and Deborah Koons (!). Tutt and redacted traveled separately from LA. Contract signed by "Bob Saenz/Band Aid".
  • Proceeds to go to Red Wind Foundation. Grandfather Semu Huate was founder of benficiary, still directing at this time: "Red Wind Foundation and inter-tribal and inter-racial community on 160 acres near San Luis Obispo California, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the cultural and religious heritage of the Chumash and other American Indians." The ad makes no mention of a benefit, it's your standard campus event ad. The Mayem exante says the show was only approved on 1/19, and does mention the Indian angle. The picture caption from the day of the show identifies "Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead" - I had seen this on an earlier SB show and thought it odd, and I still think it odd here.
