What concerts have you been to with multiple great acts? I'm thinking more of two and three act shows as opposed to the all day type of events, but list those as well. A few of mine:
1976 - Rush, Styx, Blue Oyster Cult - Hara Arena, Dayton.
1978 - Journey, Foreigner, ELO - Cleveland Stadium
201? - Alison Krauss and Union Station, Willie Nelson - Schottenstein Center, Columbus
2013 - John Prine, Elizabeth Cook - Victoria Theatre, Dayton (RIP JP)

It was excellent. Both played individual sets and then played an entire set together at the end.

Saw them at the 'shoe. Joel was "sick" that night, John carried about 75% of the show.
Meant to mention in my first post my one and only all day rock show:
1975 - The Outlaws, Styx, Bobby Womack, Status Quo, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Mahogany Rush, Foghat, Blue Oyster Cult, Black Oak Arkansas, Aerosmith (REO Speedwagon was scheduled but cancelled) - Nippert Stadium
Eric Church, Dwight Yoakam, Brother's Osborne

I'm a huge fan of Elton John's old stuff. Kinda got "meh" with that Candle in the Wind and later stuff.

That eclipses my all day event in 1990 in Garretsville (SE of Akron) with: Guess Who, Donny Iris, Steppenwolf, Molly Hatchet, Meatloaf, Blue Oyster Cult,

I like all of Elton's stuff but Billy is my guy.

Billy may have been my favorite concert...all ages there and he was incredible. Saw him in 1999

The one lead singer broke into a Bruno Mars song and nailed it 100%....so talented.
I went to a George Strait country music fest back at the 'Shoe in the late 90s or early 00s, which was cool at the time. I went to a Bunbury in Cincinnati about 5 years ago and saw Old Crow and The Avett Brothers. It was cool

Speaking of doing other people's songs, I took my girlfriend to see Chris Daughtry at the Rocksino in Cleveland and was stunned how great he was singing Prince's "Purple Rain."

I am a huge Journey fan and the Doobies were just as good live.

No doubt. He put on a helluva show even though that's not my genre. My girlfriend banned AI when he got eliminated early. She's still salty...lol. I think the band Fuel offered him to be their new lead singer before he was eliminated and he declined.
