re: Dove & SF 73

I don't think this is correct. I remember reading that the doves were
released and robert picked one up from on stage. Remember this was a Bill
Grahm show at Kezar 73 (the last save for the SNACK festival in 75) - I
expect the doves were Grahams idea and wer'nt done on any of the other
outdoor dates. I also think this was the only daytime show of the 73 North
American tour. So, while a great picture, it's not that far-out of an event.
