Band Line-up


Concert Details


Date:
Friday, May 17, 1968
Venue:
The Blue Law
Location:
Torrance, California, United States
Notes:

They were trying to raise money to keep the place open. Some kind of legal problem or something we heard. Many other bands were invited and semi-advertised. Some people thought that the band "Things to Come" played, that is not true, the poster was advertising that a lot of other bands (things to come, not "Things to Come") would be playing in the future. Those bands, like the Mother's, have been listed elsewhere as if they were there that day. I think Frank might have stopped by that day, but didn't play. Nobody wanted the place to shut down. They reopened as the Bank a few months later, presumably, after settling legal problems.

Fair Befall played both Saturday night and early on Sunday afternoon.
