The format this evening is uncertain - some say it was a single show with Steel Mill the sole act on the bill, while Springsteen himself says it was a multi-act gig, with up to six bands taking turns to play for an hour. In any case, this is the first of two performances at this venue during this early 1970 California trip. Owner Bill Graham had apparently seen one of Steel Mill's performances at The Matrix and subsequently contacted the group, hiring them as a last-minute substitute for another act that cancelled. Steel Mill impressed, and were invited back to perform another gig at Fillmore West the following week, a studio demo session and, lastly, a $1,000 retainer offer from Graham that the group declined.
