Family Dog Productions was a commune based in San Francisco producing and promoting shows featuring up and coming bands. They were joined by Chet Helms who, initially with Bill Graham[1], put on shows at the Fillmore Auditorium. This was a short lived arrangement and Helms moved his shows to the Avalon Ballroom. Zappa recalled the Old Western dress popular there.[2]
Notes
- ↑ Bill Graham (1931 – 1991) was a prominent rock concert promoter, who flourished from the 1960s until his death. He operated the Fillmore West and Winterland (both in San Francisco) and the Fillmore East (in New York City).
