Former Location –
Almost immediately after opening in 1983, this 600 seat location called Wolfgang’s was a hit, it’s easier to list who did not play here then did, but here is a brief list of those that did: U2, Midnight Oil, Randy Newman, Todd Rundgren, Jerry Garcia and Spinal Tap.
In July of 1987, a fire broke out in the hotel above the club, the combination of smoke and water damage closed the doors on a Bay Area institution forever.

Didn’t it reopen as the 7th Note for a short time in the 1990s?
The club location has opened under different management several times but the nightclub division of Bill Graham Presents called AKG did not reopen it. Most of us that worked there transferred to working at the Warfield and later The Fillmore.
