When I was a wee one, my parents would take us kids there on occasion to ice skate. Musta been in the late 60's. It was a dump back then. Never saw a concert there... Too young. The Cow Palace though....

Yea, it sure had its heyday though

anyone still in contact with Troy?)

Frampton Comes Alive was famously recorded there.

Love fest, the evanescence of life. The perfect venue.

I wish. Many of my favorite Grateful Dead shows were performed there over the years, but most of them happened before I was born. Legendary venue for sure!

Also good to see a few other deadheads on the forum! I'm a late bloomer. Came to the band after Jerry died, and through Phish (sorry not sorry), but still count them among my favorites.

I was hoping to hear from others that saw some of the many bands that performed there, I was lucky to see shows from ‘77-‘78 there. Good times for sure!

The Winterland was long gone before I made my firsts “trips” out west but I saw the dead and JGB at The Warfield Theater in SF and at the Kaiser in Oakland. ?
