John Cipollina performing at Keystone, 1976

The Keystone, also known as Keystone Berkeley, was a small music club at 2119 University Avenue[1] in Berkeley, California, which operated in the 1970s and 1980s. Numerous nationally known groups performed there, and the club was a regular venue for the Jerry Garcia Band. Keystone Berkeley, run by Freddie Herrera and Bobby Corona, was linked to The Stone and Keystone Palo Alto. [1][2][3]

Berkeley

Keystone Korner's Freddie Herrera opened Keystone Berkeley, a larger venue, then sold the Keystone Korner to Todd Barkan[4][5][6] The Keystone Berkeley closed in 1984.[7]

Palo Alto

Keystone Palo Alto, at 260 California Avenue, opened 20 January 1977.[8] The Keystone Palo Alto closed in 1986.[7] The club became the Vortex in the mid-1980s, then The Edge in 1989,[9] and closed in April 2000 to be remade into a restaurant, finally as Illusions, a restaurant and nightclub. The building was at various times during the last 50 years, a Purity Market, a Natural food store, a German restaurant, called the Zinzanatti Oom Pah Pah Lounge, a club called Sophies, it then was demolished in October 2013.[10][11][12][13][14][15]

The Stone

Marty Balin's Matrix at 3138 Fillmore Street closed in early 1971. Peter Abram, along with John Barsotti and Dave Martin, re-opened the club at 412 Broadway, previously Mr D's in late Summer 1973 but it was not really a success. The New York Dolls played September 4–6. Bob Marley and The Wailers played October 19–20, October 29–30. Legend has it that on Halloween of 1973, Iggy and The Stooges, The Tubes and Sugardaddy played a wild show here. The truth seems to be that this show actually took place in January of 1974 at another venue.[16]

412 Broadway, San Francisco, then hosted the play Bullshot Crummond, then, from 1980 to 1990 it was The Stone,[4] later it was the home of Broadway Showgirls Cabaret.[16]
