Kathleen Oravec shares that the Henry Kaiser Auditorium in Oakland, CA is a special place where she has been seeing the Grateful Dead since 1979. She is concerned that the Dead may not be able to play at the Kaiser in the future, and cautions “that could happen to your favorite venue.” Bill Graham Presents spokesman Brian Auger reveals that the Kaiser “has been at stake for the last three or four shows.”
