Title
Benefit Concert for the Survival of the Forest Community of Camp Meeker
Notes
  • Billed as Maria Muldaur and Special Guest, but contract says Jerry Garcia Band. Tutt playing with Elvis in Des Moines (Mexican Sundial suit). AFM lists two shows starting at 7:30 and 11 pm. The wage just says "Benefit/Scale", with the employer paying production expenses. I wonder what scale was in mid-1977? The AFM material lists Kahn, Keith Godchaux, Garcia and "Gregg Enrico" from AFM local no. 47 (LA). Got to be Greg Errico, not least given the independent evidence that Tutt was absent. See ex ante and preview for more information.

  • review: [positive] Jensen 19770626; Review says Garcia was supposed to open the 7:30 show, but "got lost en route from Marin County". We wonder if the flight back in from LA was late, instead? She also notes that the late show didn't start until 12:30 AM, and ended at 3 AM,.
