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

    Just a little more levity or the board.

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

    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.

    Linda Ronstadt - what a voice, she did not need a microphone
    Kansas
    James Taylor - he got mad because the crowd made too much noise

    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.

    Iron Butterfly, Wild Cherry, Frampton, Hank, some more I'm sure but the memory gets worse as the years roll by.

    I remember Bruce at the Hump, but I was too young to go.

    Most in the late 80s, was Tina Turner's dressing room door security too. Bocephus' crowd was the most insane.

    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
