The actual Line up included a 5th Band, a local Seattle Band by way of Wyoming named Butterfat, that opened for PG&E. Yes I was there with my buds (15-16 year-young-ens) enjoying a great afternoon into the late evening. Janis didn't get on stage (with bottle) until late ... after dark, So it wasn't over @ 10pm as shown on poster. (Seattle's sunset 9:15PM ish in early July)

This is the link to the boxing style poster listing the four featured bands ... Janis Joplin, Youngbloods, Steve Miller Band, Pacific Gas and Electric.

My brother went, but I didn't. Didn't make it to Satsop either. Did make it to see Butterfat, Pacific Gas and Electric (with Harvey Mandel), the Youngbloods, Steve Miller and Janis Joplin at Sicks Stadium. Sigh, a lost youth, I'm afraid.
