What concerts have you seen (or maybe remember) @ The Hump?

[Gutter Cobreh]

Bob Dylan played at the Hump in the late 90s.

Only thing I remember is that people working the event were instructed not to look him in the eye...

[LC Dawg]

I think Garth may have been the only concert at the Hump my 4 years. Did see The Black Crowes, Blues Traveler, The Allman Bros and WSP all at the malfunction junction amphitheater over the years

I saw the Black Crowes at the amphitheater around '91. When did the Allman's play it?

[NWADAWG]

Hank Jr/Restless Heart
Expose - music was meh, but the ladies singing were entertaining.
Ronnie Milsap - actually worked stage crew and spotlights for this one.
Other on campus venues
Joan Jett - at malfunction junction amp
Hoodoo Gurus - McCarthy
Smithereens - McCarthy

I will add that a couple years ago, I learned that one of my coworkers used to play with a group called 17th Floor that played Starkville fairly often. His group traveled the world and played background for Usher and several other pop/r&b groups. I didn't believe him at first but he had pics and videos of him hanging out and/or performing with Usher, Boys to Men, Prince, and some others.

Saw Bob Dillon and nickleback. Chad Kroeger grabbed a couple bottle waters he had on stage and threw them to me and my buddy on the front row. Pretty fun concert. But that's the only 2 I remember in the hump.

I remember them. Think I went to a couple sorority parties where they played. Fun band.

At the old gym:

Barry Manilow

I saw Sknyrd at the old gym in 1975.

[Gypsy_RoadDawg]

[Indndawg]

Bon Jovi
Kansas
Night Ranger
Mr Mister
Tina Turner
Hank Williams
Charlie Pride (with my parents, my first concert)
Frampton
Heart

I'm sure there are more...

Sigh....

Crowes was either Fall '91 or Spring '92. The Allmans opened for Blues Traveler in Spring '93 I think. Couple of friends and I stood right at the middle of the stage, front row and talked to Dickey Betts the whole show. We all got guitar picks at the end of the set.

[MSUDAWGFAN]

Just a little more levity or the board.

Me: Frampton, Kansas, Amy Grant, Commodores, ChicARGO, seems like there some others too.

I saw Live and Counting Crows in Spring of 2000 there. It was funny, after Live went on some guys in front of me were with their girlfriends and the girls said they wanted to leave because Counting Crows was so depressing. One of the guys responded "Live is the depressing one. Lightning crashes and old mother dies... what can be more depressing than that."

That was the only concert I ever saw at the Hump but I did see one where the drummer was out front and was also the singer (forgot who it was but they were popular at the time) at the Amphitheater.

[Really Clark?]

I was there in the early 90's and never saw one concert at The Hump. I really dont even remember one being advertised other than Garth Brooks and didnt care to see a one hit wonder.

I did see other good groups around town like Better Than Ezra, Kyper, Arabian Prince, and a few others.

One hit wonder? He had already had like 10 number 1?s when he played in Starkville in 1992. I?m not a huge Garth fan but that was a fun concert. He was very entertaining. Busted out his new jersey Jackie gave him before the concert.

Seriously? I?ve only heard the Low Places song. Didn?t know he had done much else. But I only listen to rock and Rap. I have no idea who anybody is in Country Music except Faith Hill

Huey Lewis / .38 Special
Night Ranger / Joe Lynn Turner
Whitesnake / Cinderella
Bon Jovi / Great White
Hank Williams, Jr.

Of course they were all ?A Musicmaker Production?......

I dislike most country - but I don't know how you were on campus at the same time I was and escaped hearing Garth everywhere you went. I had a neighbor who would come home from Classix and just blast that shit at 2:00 AM. It was shear torture.

He's decent. Lolz.

He's sold more records than anybody ever except the Beatles.

[dstatechamps]

Garth Brooks with Martina McBride opening.

Was there for that. We didn't know who the long-haired brunette was, we just wanted her to hurry up and get off the stage.

Very cool. I graduated in '93 but I don't remember the Allmans show. I saw them in '95 at the Jackson Zoo. Only time I got to see them. I didn't appreciate their greatness until later in life.

[AusTexDawg]

The only one I remember attending at the Hump was Sheryl Crow with Eagle Eye Cherry. My first concert ever was the Black Crowes at the Amphitheater.

Yeah I'm not real big Garth fan either, but the dude has sold 157 million albums, not bad lol.

#1 artist in album sales since 1991, according to Nielsen.
