This October, GAMH will hit full middle age at 50, though the building it's housed in has more than twice that age. It’s seen SanFrancisco’s music fads through their best days, hosting the Grateful Dead and other psychedelic legends of the '70s.
In 2013, San Francisco’s Great American Music Hall was listed as No. 6 on Rolling Stone’s roundup of the Best Clubs in America. During the 10 years since, and up to its 50th anniversary this October, the Great Hall's booking calendars have demonstrated subtle shifts in The City’s music preferences — as well as one unwavering audience trend: San Francisco is always eager for the next new sound.
This October, the Music Hall will hit full middle age at 50, though the building it's housed in is more than twice that age. Erected just a year after the 1906 earthquake, the ornate restaurant and former bordello turned music venue is 115 years old. It’s seen San Francisco’s music fads through their best days, hosting the Grateful Dead and other psychedelic legends of the '70s.“Tons of venues have cropped up in the last 10 years, new places,” says Barnes.
“Our calendar always obviously changes to a certain degree to reflect things that are going on at the time, but it's so diverse that it will continue to have artists that have played there for literally 50 years, you know, 30 years or whatever. And then completely new stuff.”
