No T-shirts in those days, but the posters were pretty cool. I saw Hendrix Feb 3, 1968 at Hunter College, in case you want to google it. Frank Zappa was in the audience- we saw him in the lobby when we walked in. The band the Association was also in the audience, and I think they were introduced and stood up to applause. The music was great, mostly from his first album, and the one song I distinctly remember was "Red House." I too had no idea as did anybody that he wasn't going to live very long, and of course I never saw him again.
