Courtesy of Bill Graham Foundation: We turn our thoughts to March 23, 1975, when Bill and BGP, with just a month's notice, organized an all-star benefit extravaganza to raise funds needed by San Francisco public schools faced with fiscal cutbacks, in order to continue after-school sports and other extra-curricular activities. Entitled S.N.A.C.K. Sunday (Students Need Activities, Culture and Kicks), the event was held at the 60,000-seat Kezar Stadium, with tickets priced at $5. The day featured appearances by Marlon Brando and Willie Mays, among other celebrities; a one-time-only collaboration of Bob Dylan, The Band and Neil Young; and performances by Santana, Jefferson Airplane, Jerry Garcia and Friends, Joan Baez, The Doobie Brothers, and others. The event raised more than $200,000, enough to fund San Francisco after-school programs for an entire year.
