For all of the newcomers to this site who aren't aware of the old Playland at the Beach in San Francisco, this website will tell you just about everything you might want to know: http://www.sonic.net/~playland/playland.html Believe it or not, the last time I saw Laughing Sal was backstage at a Rolling Stones' concert at the Oakland Coliseum. Concert promoter Bill Graham was still alive and had the entire outdoor backstage set up like a carnival setting. It was quite an amazing site to see her up close! Linda
