My attempt to come up with a list of every act I've seen in concert. The rock list is pretty complete, I think, although I can't remember the name of the band that opened for Of Montreal. The hip-hop list is trickier, since most shows have at least three opening acts, and they tend to run together. Also, I can't begin to remember every act at shows like the 9th Wonder cd release show. Keith might be able to remember more of the names that I'm forgetting.
