Excerpts from the final Grateful Dead Fillmore Auditorium shows in December 1969
In the last couple of weeks it was finally the actual 50th anniversary of both the naming of, and first performance (12/4) as, The Grateful Dead. However that was a house party (okay Acid Test), but not out at a real public venue. The Grateful Dead's first show was on December 10th (and 11th) at the Fillmore Auditorium, originally called Majestic Hall and Majestic Academy of Dancing, dating to 1912..
The Grateful Dead played the Fillmore Auditorium more than either other Fillmore venue (East & West) and also had their last gigs there first. We'll hear portions from that run, December 19-21, 1969.
