It could be that Fleetwood Mac had to get off so the late show could start again. Bill was a stickler if it meant paying customers

Excellent point, Vinnie - I had not considered that they could have been finishing up an early show there. But if that was the case and Bill Graham had really wanted them to get offstage so he could get more paying customers in for a late show, I'm sure that he would have gotten them to leave the stage, one way or another!
