Jefferson Starship was the remnants of the Jefferson Airplane transforming themselves as a more pop, radio friendly band while retaining much of the cosmic vibe of the original outfit. With Grace Slick and Marty Balin on lead vocals, and some catchy hit singles, the “Red Octopus” album with Balin’s mega-hit “Miracles”, and the follow up album “Spitfire” were successful projects propelling them forward and extending their careers for years to come. Starship became in the 1970”s what the Airplane started in the 1960’s and possibly became even bigger and more popular than the Jefferson Airplane had been.

The Bob Weir Band opened the show with the Grateful Dead founder and his side project proving to be the perfect compliment to their Northern California counterparts.
