Grand Prix Racecourse July 1973

Also Appearing

Allman Brothers, The Band, and Grateful Dead

Notes

Liberatore reports that reportedly GD received a flat fee of $117,500. Pretty credible, since he is sitting in GD offices and talking with the whole band. Confirmed by impresario Jim Koplik, plus an extra $25k since there were so many people.
