Doors, The (Jim Morrison)/Dance Concerts

Question
Jim Morrison and the Doors played at the Underground Cavern, on Bleeker Street in Greenwich Village, New York, on May 8, 1966. Who shared the bill with the Doors. I maintain it was Bill Meers and the Rockers and the Nifty Nick Band. I've seen some reproduction posters that say it was the Jefferson Airplane. Who actually shared the bill?

Answer
Larry,

Doubt I can help you much on this one as I am unable to source any info on this.

Jefferson Airplane (they toured Europe together)did a heck of a lot of stuff with The Doors and may well have supported at that Underground gig.

Sorry I can't be of more help.
