• Shoreline Ampitheatre is a "Steal Your Face!!!!"
    Ahhhhhhh!!!! I didn't know this, and i'm sure a lot of you already do. But some of you might not know it. This is coooooool. When Bill Graham built Shoreline Ampitheatre he wanted it designed in the shape of a "Stealie." I found this on this website called thestrangestofplaces.com and heavens to Betsy, who'd a thunk it. This was a jaw dropper and a tongue wagger.. ; ) ummm.. ; ) Follow this link and see one very righteous animation/video of the whole thing. This kind of stuff just makes me smile. Obviously I'm a bit on the giddy side. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVxHjRl2Uw4 If you have to copy and paste the link into your browser then do it....it's well worth it.... That Bill Graham....He knew how to throw a party, and my goodness, this just shows how huge his love was for the GD. Thanks Bill. Glad I got to meet ya once. -Tom

    For me, the strongest, weirdest, trippiest, hippiest Grateful Dead vibe always came from good 'ol Shoreline and this proves it! =) Thanks for sharing! "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"
