As dance music was making its ascent in the United States starting around 2010, a new generation of burgeoning stars were graduating from bedrooms to small clubs to mid-sized rooms to larger venues to festival mainstages. This future class of EDM elite required big, but not quite arena-sized spaces as they climbed the ladder of dance music superstardom -- and on the West Coast, a major nexus of the scene became San Francisco's Bill Graham Civic Auditorium.
Erected in 1915, throughout its century of existence the space has hosted greats including Elvis Presley, Judy Garland, The Who, Janis Joplin, The Grateful Dead and other stars of the city's famed late '60s psychedelic rock heyday. As electronic music become the sound of choice by the 2010s, bookings at the venue reflected the tastes of young audiences who were driving the EDM youth moment.
\While farther down the coast, Los Angeles was considered the hub of the U.S. dance scene, San Francisco was a crucial west coast tour stop and region stronghold. From 2010 onward the Auditorium -- named for the late iconic concert promoter Bill Graham -- hosted nearly every major dance music as they ascended to headliner status.
This past weekend, the venue celebrated its ten year anniversary of operation by Another Planet Entertainment, the only independent and locally owned concert production company in Northern California. Another Planet Entertainment also operates venues including San Francisco's Independent Theatre, Oakland's Fox Theatre and the Greek Theatre and UC Berkeley.
As such, Allen Scott, the Head of Concerts & Festivals at Another Planet Entertainment, has seen many of the biggest names in the global dance scene pass through the halls of the Auditorium. Here, in his own words, Scott shares the back stories on ten of the biggest dance music shows to ever roll through the venue.The first and only artist to headline five consecutive nights at the venue to kick off their historic One Last Tour in 2013.
