   out opened the concert with Tom Sawyer which was awesome and then played for   
   like 4 hours. Best concert ever at the outdoor concert pavilion.

   (in '94, I think) were generic pop-metal-grunge.  Mr. Big were generic   
   arena-rock, albeit I think the guitarist used a power drill to create sound   
   effects -- which was really...   
   immature.   
      
     i don't remember any of the opening acts of the concerts   
   i went to, but that was a long time ago (early 70s to 80)   
   and perhaps i, um, just forgot.  :)   
      
     was just watching youtube vid yesterday of Alex showing   
   how to play Limelight.   
      
     youtube really just makes life great to watch some of the   
   boots and concerts that i could never have heard otherwise.
