I knew it was a musician's hangout, but I was surprised at just how much seemed to be going on at the Lion's Share -- Parish says in the 2003 interview that it was such a scene that Bill Graham even came by to check it out.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11628132999021385676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8189740927119210874.post-82134886359782780472015-09-15T11:48:34.534-04:002015-09-15T11:48:34.534-04:00Wow, this is a pretty remarkable bit of research. ...Wow, this is a pretty remarkable bit of research. All the more so since Garcia only had opening bands at the Lions Share, not the Keystone Berkeley.<br /><br />Once Garcia settled in at Keystone he pretty much rejected any electric opener, I think because once equipment was set up they didn't want to move it. Thus only acoustic acts opened at Keystone (with one or two exceptions). But the Lion's Share was looser, so there were opening bands. An early iteration of the Charlie Daniels Band opened once for JGMS at the Lions Share.<br />Corry342https://www.blogger.com/profile/08049035074121231425noreply@blogger.com
