Verification Notes

ANTAGONIST-CHECKED. 1968-08-09=Friday; OPENING of Steppenwolf / Siegel-Schwall Band / Santana at the Avalon, Aug 9-11, Billy Glover's FD-132 (titled 'Aurora'; Smithsonian American Art Museum holds it, dated 8/9-8/11/68; corroborated by Corry Arnold's Steppenwolf list). An EARLY third-billed Santana Avalon appearance -- barely a year into the band, pre-debut-album, a year before Woodstock. NOTE: FD-132 (Glover) != BG-132 (Conklin) -- same number, different series, same week. Co-lead of 08-09.
