The Fillmore is a historic music venue in San Francisco, California. Built in 1912 and originally named the Majestic Hall, it became the Fillmore Auditorium in 1954.[1] In the mid-1960s, the Fillmore became the focal point for psychedelic music and the counterculture in general, with such acts as the Jimi Hendrix Experience, Grateful Dead, The Doors, The Who, Cream, and Pink Floyd.[2]
The Fillmore reopened under promoter Bill Graham's management in the mid-1980s, but it was damaged and closed by the Loma Prieta earthquake of October 1989. After Graham died in a helicopter crash in 1991, those close to him decided to carry out his final wish to retrofit and reopen the original Fillmore, which required much structural work. The Fillmore reopened on April 27, 1994 to The Smashing Pumpkins playing an unannounced surprise show.
