In one of the more odd combinations of headliner and supporting acts I ever saw, I witnessed The Brothers Johnson warm up Queen on their A Night at the Opera Tour on Feb. 14th, 1976.
Personally, I like concerts with a lot of variety and less homogeneity among the acts...The patron gets a wider spectrum of entertainment that way, and the bill don't suffer varying degrees of audience burnout - It's bad enough that producers and the industry insist on such a slavish degree of conformity to aid sales in the recording medium now, to have that on a live lineup also is ludicrous.
