Default A Reeeeeeeeal Long Shot

Okay. I know the chances of my getting this answer are slim to none... but I figure this diverse group of music lovers just may be able to help.... Thanks for even trying...

I went to many, many Indigo Girls concerts back in the day. And saw many, many brilliant opening acts. I bought all of those opening acts' indie CDs at the shows. Then, all my CDs got stolen, and I lost some real gems. There was one that I particularly loved and would really love to track down again. can I remember what they were called? Not a chance.

So here's the long shot question: did anyone see the Indigo Girls in Montreal and/or Boston in the 1989-1992 range. In Montreal, at le Spectrum; in Boston at Paradise Lounge. It was a small, folky acoustic group (shocking! ) who opened - maybe two guys and a girl (girl was lead singer; guys did harmonies).

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Thanks....

Here's a link to some bootleg Indigo Girls shows. You may be able to find what you are looking for. I found the Boston show but it didn't list who the opening act was. Good luck!
