Fillmore East, the 70's, everybody's stoned on acid waiting for Emerson, Lake, & Palmer and out comes Edgar Winter's White Trash.......NO CONTEST!!!!!;)
Again back in the day I saw Bruce Springsteen open for Winter Consort, apples to oranges, but it still was no contest. A favorite was the TRIPLE billing of the original YES (3rd), original Humble Pie (2nd), and Black Sabbath. The night before Yes and the Pie destroyed Sabbath so the night I went they cancelled!! Talk about a rockin' night!
