Favorable & "Not So Much" Opening Acts

[trackaghost]

Wow, that's awesome. I'm pretty impressed you got to meet them and Chrissie Hynde in particular. That was really sweet what she said too It's so nice to hear of rock stars (actually Chrissie is probably more like an icon these days) being so cool to their fans.

Hey and thanks for the add on last.fm!

Best:

Fischer-Z opening for Dire Straits around 81: Dumb choice from Knopfler:he looked even paler than normal after such an energetic band in topform. Simple said: they were blown off the stage.
dEus opening for Morphine
and
Eels opening for Screaming Trees

Worst:
Well, Sharon, Richard Marx opening for Stevie was apart from bland also very dumb. The guy rented Stevies hair. By the way, she was bland too that tour. And bad sound! I still enjoyed it though.
Chris de Burgh opening for Fleetwood Mac, BTM-tour. Man, what a crapshow.

I never saw Fleetwood Mac open for CSN...I only listed shows I personally saw.
