        I read an interview with Springsteen in which he recalled seeing the Who opening for Herman's Hermits at the Asbury Park Convention Hall. Similar situation.

        I was at a concert where Howlin' Wolf opened for Chase, and another where B.B. King opened for the Marshall Tucker Band. King and his band were late, and Marshall Tucker was more than happy to open for him.
