Duran Duran at the Rum Runner in Birmingham, UK anytime in 1979 - 1982
U2 at Red Rocks 1984 (ish) 
Styx during ANY tour before the release of Kilroy Was Here

I was supposed to go to the Texas Jam when I was 13, but the folks decided I was too young and my brother got to go with my sister instead.  The line up was (from Wikipedia):

Sammy came on right before Styx at the end. Trivia: Ted Nugent and Rik Emmett joined Sammy Hagar on stage in Dallas for their version of Led Zeppelin's "Rock "n Roll." Tommy Shaw recalls these shows as being some of the worst of his career. He claims to have feared for his life as his band was performing nothing but the (lame)ROCK OPERA "Killroy was here" after some of the best hard rock bands of the day had performed. (This was the tour that essentially ended Styx.) Not even RENEGADE?

That would have been totally awesome.

What if they're all killed in a horrific plain crash in the Andes when they're 8 years old before they record any music. You won't be such a big fan then will you, Mr Listen.

Folksong '59.  Featuring Muddy Waters, Memphis Slim, The Cadillacs, Jimmy Driftwood, The Selah Jubilee Singers, Pete Seeger, Mike Seeger, and the hit of the evening, Earl Taylor and the Stoney Mountain Boys (from Bawlmer, Hon!)

 in April of 1959 when Earl Taylor and the Stoney Mountain Boys played Carnegie Hall . . . Curtis Cody, who was guesting on fiddle for the Baltimore-based bluegrass band, peeked through the curtains before the start of the show. The elegant hall was packed with Northern folk-music fans, as the first bluegrass group ever to perform at the elegant and historic concert hall - more accustomed to playing in bars in and around Baltimore - paced nervously backstage.

Curtis turned to banjo player Walter Hensley and said, "Walt, I don't think they'll like us a bit." Walt recalls that his legs "were like Jell-O - and we had to play the fastest song we knew." But when Walt, with legs shaking, stepped out onto the stage before the assembled audience at Alan Lomax's Folksong '59 concert, Curtis recalls that "he played something on the banjo, and they tore that place up." Curtis Cody wasn't alone in his assessment of the band's performance and the crowd's reaction. "There is true folk magic in every note Walt plays," according to Alan Lomax. Neil V. Rosenberg, in his book Bluegrass: A History, reports that "all agreed that of the various groups in the concert, Earl Taylor and the Stoney Mountain Boys were the hit of the evening." Years later in an article in Bluegrass Unlimited by Tom Ewing, Earl Taylor recalled, "When we would end a number, I knew that it would take five minutes before we could go into another one - that was how much rarin' and screamin' and hair-pullin' there was". The recording of that concert, released as an LP later that year on United Artists (Folksong Festival at Carnegie Hall, UAL 3049), influenced a generation of young musicians and new fans, many from urban areas in the North who were exposed to bluegrass for the first time
