The poster and handbill for these shows both have errors on them leading to 
confustion as to when these shows took place.  They are from 1967, not 1966.  I 
found a newspaper article to confirm this:

http://users.erols.com/scarletfire/CA%20Oakland%20Tribune%201967-03-26%20NEW%20SHOWS%20ROCK%20GARDEN.jpg

See the poster info here:

http://www.deadlists.com/posters/1960s/19660428.html

The newspaper article is from Sunday March 26, 1967 and says Charles Lloyd will 
be playing at the Rock Garden "tonight, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and 
Saturday. The Grateful Dead and the Virginians, a pair of r 'n' r groups, will 
share the bill."

The poster says Mystery Trend will be playing, but the article says The 
Virginians instead. Whoever did the poster and handbill really screwed them up. 
 Since the newspaper article was published the day of the 1st show in the run, 
I suggest going by what it says only. 

That means the shows were on March 26 (Sunday, "tonight"), March 28 & 29 (Tues 
and Wed), and March 31 & April 1 (Friday and Sat).


Iver - you need to update your poster page for this one too!  :-)
