For details skip down a little.
Hopefully if any brain cells remain and synapses willing, I'll try to get some sort of review up tomorrow.

Happy 75th Birthday Bill Graham (last night now)
It really was quite a show.
RatDog opened. When did Mark and Jeff change sides? That flipped me out - at first I was on the wrong side of the stage, but luckily irenie and kemmie grabbed the space in front of Mark and I was able to join them.
RatDog was followed by Jackson Brown, who started out acoustic. Bonnie Raitt joined him for a song, and then a really great choral group, and Carlos Santana.
After the next break, Mickey came out and just about everyone joined him - there must have been about 50 people on the stage.
Then the Neville Bros. came out - Carlos joined them, and then Bobby and Jackson and Bonnie. And everyone came out for a big finale.
There was birthday cake in the poster room.
RatDog was just fantastic. One set only:
Tomorrow Never Knows
October Queen
Lazy River Road
Sugar Magnolia
One More Saturday Night
From where I was standing, in front of Mark, I could see his setlist - and originally it read October Queen/Deep
(Deep Elem?) Sugar Magnolia was not on the original setlist, which had Lazy River Road followed by OMSN.
But Sugar Magnolia - Sugar Mag for BILL - that was a much better choice. And I love the way this band can turn on a dime and do Sugar Magnolia on a whim. Guess they can do that with almost any song these days. They are just amazing.
I had a wonderful time, sharing space and time with irenie, scott, martha, kemmie, mazzy, and the one and only TERRAPIN!!!
Plus too-many-to-count Jackson Browne freaks - did you know they have their own web site????
..........................................................................
Add The Other One to the setlist above and Probably it was The Deep End not Deep Elem...
Still waking up here - hoping to make it back to Fillmore tonight for more!
