There was a lot of angry because he charged us $3 where as before he set up shop Speedway Meadows concerts happened almost every weekend during good weather and they were FREE!!! All in all though he's contribution to rock and roll is immeasurable.</p><p>Note: His last show (the <a href="http://www.dead101.com/1335.htm" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.dead101.com/1335.htm">"Bill Graham Memorial Concert"</a> at the Polo Grounds 11/3/91) was free and I wouldn't have missed it for the world.<br></p>SteveKTue, 08 Jan 2008 15:05:07 -0000http://themoderatevoice.com/at-tmv/an-appreciation/16936/bill-graham-an-appreciation/#comment-65988<p>And as the doors fly open even the promoter smiles.</p>GeorgeSorwellTue, 08 Jan 2008 14:24:23 -0000
