I think it was fall of 1999. It was so awesome seeing them in Rudder. My favorite band at the time!Fly Army 97 said:
Live played a great show in Rudder around 99 or 00. Not the best, but it was great.

Moving Sidewalk (later known as ZZ Top) 1969 at A&M Consolidated HS Prom
Mance Lipscomb around that same year at a Church Coffee House near Campus.
Both were awesome in completely different ways.

Unless he played Eastgate Live more than once, I was at that Eric Johnson show, too. I remember that Dru Wilson opened for him. Still have the autographed ticket stub.
I was at those shows as well. I didn't even know who he was at the time. I still have my Tones and Ah Via Musicom CDs. Pull them out every once in a while for a listen.maroon barchetta said:AmericasChoiceRoof said:

Eric Johnson played Eastgate at least twice.
I saw him in '87 in the fall or maybe early '88. I remember it was cold and I wore my trench coat and didn't have anywhere to put it inside and the club was tiny and standing room only so I just wore it and sweated my skinny ass off.
Brought my Tones album to that show and had the cover signed afterwards.
Then in May of '88 the last night of finals. EJ and the band had just finished recording Ah Via Musicom (before he went back and re-recorded and remixed everything for 18 months like he was Tom Scholz or something).
Those EJ shows were amazing. He tried to sell a Gibson 335 or 355 during the show. Weird to see him play that!
Met him and his girlfriend after the show. He could not have been nicer to visit with. His girlfriend at the time was a junior or senior at t.u. She was really nice as well. Eric would have been 33 at the time, so good for him!
I saw Bob Hope in G Rollie White, but I was either in elementary or middle school and didn't get any of his jokes. What a miss.MsDoubleD81 said:
Bob Hope.
I know this post is 12 years old but Back In Black, one of the biggest selling albums of all time, was released in 1980 so it's ludicrous to suggest that they opened for Hammer or if somehow they did at a down time in their career that they would have been "little known".BennyBlancoFromTheBright said:
