1979 (or thereabouts) -- David Johansen opened for South Side Johnny & The Asbury Jukes at a bar in Charleston, IL and almost caused a riot.

^^^ Ha! Very true. You gotta mix it up!

I own In Prism. That's the nicest thing I can say about Polvo.

Finished The Sportswriter so it's on to Independence Day.

I saw that the Drive-By Truckers opened several shows for Eric Church a few weeks ago. Had I known there would be a thread like this, I would have gone for no reason other than to have the winning entry!

Well done. I've got that one and the poster from the 12/11/14 show framed and hanging side-by-side in my office.

I saw EV open for The Who at House of Blues in Chicago around 15 years ago. He came on stage and played "Tattoo" with the band (singing from the same mic as Pete) and looked about as happy as EV can look. Great moment.

I actually like (quite a bit) the entire Youth & Young Manhood album by Kings of Leon -- a band that is on my Music Axis of Evil.
