Keith Godchaux 5/25/74

I ran across John Conroy‘s excellent photos the other day, and he was kind enough to share this one along with a link to more of his photos. This picture of Keith Godchaux was taken at the UC Santa Barbara stadium on May 25, 1974 (a show I also attended!); there are more images from that day that I know you’ll like, along with lots of other interesting stuff. Check ’em out!
