Comments Teddy GoodBear: (See 1/15/66 - "Portland Acid test" for more of Bear's comments). His comments were made off the top of his head & therefore may not be accurate. Owsley "Bear" Stanley: there were only two Matrix shows, one in Dec '65, and the one before the Fillmore AT. The Matrix was a crummy little closet of a venue with barely enough room for 50 to 60 people to stand in, the big name bands didn't play there after they got up and known. The hall couldn't pay more than $100 for the act. They seldom had two acts/night and so far as I know never three. The Dead played there twice when they were unknown.
