Complete unused 4.5 x 1.25 concert ticket for "Jimi Hendrix" at the San Antonio Convention Center Arena in San Antonio, Texas, on May 10, 1970, a "Floor Seat" for "Sec. 2, Row EE, Seat 5." In fine condition. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks.
The Jimi Hendrix performance at San Antonio’s HemisFair Arena (also known as the San Antonio Convention Center Arena) on May 10, 1970, came during a Southwest run on the Cry of Love Tour, following two performances at the University of Oklahoma in Norman on May 8th and a concert at Fort Worth’s Will Rogers Coliseum on May 9th. The tour, which opened at the Forum in Inglewood, California, on April 25th, featured Hendrix with drummer Mitch Mitchell and bassist Billy Cox, who had replaced Noel Redding. HemisFair Arena had opened on April 6, 1968, as part of the HemisFair ’68 world’s fair, and Country Funk is listed as the opening act for the San Antonio concert. Hendrix’s 65-minute set comprised 12 songs, including ‘Machine Gun,’ ‘The Star-Spangled Banner,’ ‘Purple Haze,’ and ‘Voodoo Child (Slight Return),’ and came six days after four students were killed by Ohio National Guardsmen at Kent State University. During his May 8th appearance in Norman, Hendrix dedicated ‘Machine Gun’ to the Kent State victims.
