Interesting/unusual concert pairings.

Yyzsantabarbara, well she is world famous for a reason. Just not my cup of tea. Glad you enjoyed her concert.

In the 1970's, I saw Journey open for Emerson, Lake and Palmer -- Journey was not well-received.  Also saw Little Feat open for Electric Light Orchestra -- another odd combination but not nearly as poorly received.

Buddy Guy and Junior Wells opening for Dave Mason at the Iowa Fieldhouse  in the early 70's. BG and JW was the best live performance I've ever encountered and started me on that long road with the blues. And that's coming from an old Deadhead. However about a third of the way through Dave Mason, there was hardly anybody left in the audience. They weren't bad. Just didn't have near the energy and showmanship of the first act.

Wendy Williams and the Plasmatics  opened for Kiss- probably 1982. Hard core punk warming up for theatrical rock. Enjoyed both bands immensely. Wendy was in saran wrap.

James Brown and Pavarotti
