Sun. May 19th: Northern California Folk-Rock Festival - Family Park, Santa Clara County Fairgrounds - San Jose, CA

The Doors are scheduled to close this two-day event with a one hour set at 4:30 p.m. on Sunday. They come onto the stage after a long day of music and at least ten other bands had played before them. The crowd was a little tired and the band playing in the middle of the afternoon made for a less than outstanding performance that just wasn't received with much enthusiasm. Also performing during the two-day event: The Grateful Dead; The Animals; Big Brother and The Holding Company; the Youngbloods; the Electric Flag; Jefferson Airplane; Kaleidoscope; Country Joe and the Fish; Taj Mahal; and many other lesser known bands.

  • @GOORVY he filmed Hollywood Bowl 1968 :)

  • I was here! I'll never forget how scary Jim was in real life....I was only 13 yrs. old and it was my first concert. I was still innocent then.

  • ya the new music sucks ..i wish i was born in the 50s ,60s,70s, and even the 80s all had great bands .we need to bring that music back. at least that type of music..

  • was there a kid that got on stage when the doors played?

  • @sixsixxsixxxx

    Are you high? Where are there any "festivals" with a bunch of top groups all on one stage? The last time I saw one like that was in the 1970s - CalJam 1 & 2. Santana, Ted Nugent, Heart, all killed. The music biz is too full of bullshit and egos to have great festivals like they did in the 60s.

  • @szqsk8 are u serious??? there are more festivals now then ever before! holy shit u must be blind!

  • Harrison Ford was one of the camera ops at The Hollywood Bowl concert early July of 68. I guess Jim tripped that night before going on.

  • @horuseye1972

    WRONG.
