I saw The Band at the fairgrounds too. I also saw The New Riders of the Purple Sage there. Great place for concerts!
We never paid admission and always snuck in to the fair until we had children and they couldn't climb over the fences! Now, we pay to get in.

I remember both of those concerts, vaguely...I believe Bob must have played there too. But my most memorable concert was The Rolling Thunder Review at the Patrick Gym; fall of 1975, I believe? Bob Dylan, The Band, Roger McGuinn, Joan Baez and a whole entourage of others, including the travelling poet, Allen Ginsberg, who sat near me. Also near me were Gerry Petrie and several monks from the Weston Priory. Both my folks were there too. What a night!

As for sneaking into the fair grounds, we did it for years through a hole near the St James Church. Later on we got bolder and just rushed the gate. I remember getting chased onto the midway one year. I crawled under a cotton candy cart; it was amazing that i didn't get electrocuted! For that matter, it was amazing that I survived the 70's!
