That Penguin one with all the tour dates is mighty helpful though too. Thanks for that link - somehow missed it when rummaging through old sites.

A new site to pop into my bookmarks.

These shows may not have been part of an official tour, perhaps more of a warm up type gigs for the new line-up. They were very small venues. I have a newspaper article from West Palm Beach about this new Time line-up and Florida shows. Shows included: West Palm Beach at the Carefree Theater, Pompono Beach at the Amplitheater, SUN? Festival in West Palm Beach, and The Florida Theater in Jacksonville. Maybe there were others?

For BTM tour I saw Fleetwood Mac two nights in a row at Great Woods in Mass. One night Squeeze opened up the other night was World Party due to a schedule conflict or something.

^ Off topic, still going through some of my stuff but here are a few dates I found for the 94-early 95 shows in Florida for whoever is interested.
August 29th 1994 Carefree Theater (sold out, 750 seats)
December 30th 1994 Pompano Beach Amphitheater (sold out, 2600 seats)
January 1st 1995 Florida Theater Jacksonville, Fl (Great show they closed with "Imagine".)
May? 1995 West Palm Beach SunFest
This may have been all of them besides the later trek with Pat Benatar and REO.

(I refuse to use the term Time tour because they DIDN'T tour after the album was released. They may have done less than 5 shows subsequent to it's release, but that's it.)

Thanks for the info.I do remember seeing The Band but I dont recall the time frame.

I know they played LOUD like Peter Frampton did when he opened for Stevie in 1986.

I only want to one show on that tour.

Back in 1988 at the Tango-tour in Rotterdam they had The Adventurers opening for them ( they had a small hit with "Drowning in the sea of Love").


In 1989 Stevie solo : Richard Marx

In 1990 there was Chris de Burgh

In 1994 they had Dutch local rocker Hans Vermeulen.

In 2004, 2009 and 2013 no opening acts.

All in The Netherlands though.
