Title: Updated Belllagio Gigs/sessions...
Post by: Ian on February 14, 2008, 08:50:05 AM
Since AGD is not one to boast-I thought I'd alert you that the Gig/sessions site was again updated and now includes singles and album release dates from 1961-75 (they are in Dark Green).  1976 is completed and will be added within the near future.  I have added some more gigs to the site-including two more June 1974 shows and an April 1962 show.  For those that don't know-all shows with stars are shows that were either not listed in Keith Badman's book that we found or listed in his book with errors (, date, venue or city, etc) that we corrected.  Any such corrections are based on the original ads or concert reviews- which I possess.  I'd say I have collected about six stuffed binders of such material.  An examples of an error- a Kansas City show was listed by Badman as April 17 1967 but was actually March 19, etc, etc.

1976 is now online - with the invaluable assistance of a good friend, I think the session dates for this year are probably as accurate as is possible without getting hold of the AFM sheets: many of the dates are taken from the tape boxes.

That said, corrections and additions welcome... and of course, ian's concert research is as impeccable as ever.   8)

One corrction is that it should read "Brian's first show outside California since March 1970. Also would it be possible to ascertain which shows Brian played in the last five months of 1976 and all tour shows thereafter?

Looks good, this era is quite messy so its nice to have some clarity.
With regards to the extra material recorded for POB - Do you think we'll see some of this on the upcoming reissue?

We'll see in a few months. I'm hoping for some more precise session dates in the liners.
