Your favorite bands all opened for someone at one point in their careers.
Exactly, but also in the old days, you could see opening acts that were just as big as the headliners. I think after time, some headliners even felt like they were being outshined by opening acts, so they started really digging up no-chance no-name bands.
On a different note, under the "who would have thought", can you believe Jimi Hendrix Experience opened for the Monkees??

-in '97 at Centroplex, unknown Incubus opened for 311 and blew us away.
-a year or so later when Incubus started playing The Varsity all the time, System of a Down opened and blew the roof off (again we had never heard of them, but did after that!)
-A Perfect Circle opening for NIN (but were already huge since it was a Maynard side project)
-Meriwether opening for Anomaly :)
