    For me, I'd say Death Cab For Cutie on VFC tour, before Death Cab was big nationally and before they became too saccharine-sweet. Iggy Pop is up there, in 1998. MMJ was good, too.

    Favourite - My Morning Jacket and Band of Horses

    Least Favourite - Ted Leo & the Pharmacists and Mudhoney

    Most seem to rave about Mudhoney, but I just can't get into them.

    MMJ by far.

    Supergrass was OK.

    Mudhoney was "meh"

    But I will add that I was able to see Pearl Jam open for themselves at Toronto '09. Ed singing Sugar Mountain, Mike doing a couple of solo songs, Ed and Jeff doing Bee Girl.

    Also, Liam Finn for the '08 Ed shows was stellar

    I saw Henry Rollins open for them in Berkley back in 1993. It was Halloween night and the show was amazing.
    WOW...saw Rollins Band a couple of times...pure aggression...Henry still got it in him, but usually tours with spoken word now...never saw that but i'm sure it's good food for the mind

    STICKING WITH THE THREAD:
    usually miss the openers

    Band of Horses...singer reminded me of perry f from Jane's Add
    mudhoney was cool "all the lucky ones are gone"
    Ben Harper...missed him but liked when he sang with PJ

    Sonic Youth and Social Distortion as opening acts? that would have been great to see...

    geography is getting me down and under...
    ... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...
