Opening Bands

Post by bigrc18 » Sat Aug 27, 2022 10:16 am

Dennis,
I see back in the 70's a lot of great bands opened for you guys (The J. Geils Band, Poco, Dr. John, The Stooges). I had to ask about something I found online that I find it hard to believe, Did the Jackson 5 really open up for ACG back in 71 in Tampa Florida?

I did find a post that says AC & Jackson 5 at Curtis Hixon Hall in Tampa, Florida on April 2, 1971, but the SickthingsUK History lists Johnny Winter opened that show. I don't recall doing a show with the Jackson 5 and I'm not sure I would have wanted to follow them back then. Johnny Winter wasn't easy to follow either.
