I saw these guys before before Billy Gibbons sported a perpetual beard.
So did I, in Tulane Stadium and in City Park. Both venues were packed. They were already famous by that time. As were most of the bands listed in this thread.

Saw Zac brown at the mucky duck in Houston in 2006. Like darth vader said, no more than 50-60 at the show.

Better than Ezra, REM, and the Producers were hitting the college circuit. This is what got their music out there.
I swear I remember a band named Ezra before better than Ezra but maybe not?
Producers were a 'big' college band but didn't go as far as REM. I think REM and the Producers were from Atlanta.

I worked with a guy who played trumpet in a high school band with Janis Joplin in Beaumont, Texas.

I saw the Georgia Satellites before they blew up. Granted they never had prolonged success. I saw them several times. One show was The Satellites, Jason and The Scorchers, and Dash at Tips. That was a hell of show.

Ok, now this is awesome. I'm ever hopeful for a reunion tour but don't think it will ever happen. John is just too bitter.

We knew who they were back ~'71 or '72 but they weren't anywhere near as famous as they became a year or two later.

Decyfer Down. They still aren't huge but they had a single hit #3 on the rock charts.
I saw them at a trunk or treat Halloween party at a church 1.5 years before they released their first album. Literally was me, 4 other guys, and the lead singers fiance standing their listening.

Gogol Bordello at Voodoo Fest 2002 or 03'. They performed in a small tent for about 50 people and rocked it.
