Jerry Garcia Band opened for Bobby and the Midnights, So. Fallsburg, NY, 1982. Rained hard on Bob, everybody went home, except for some guy with a bottle of Jack who kept screaming "Ain't it good to be alive!" at the top of his lungs.

More obscurely, the smokin' hot cowpunk band Speedball opening for a lamentable Toad the Wet Sproket, Ann Arbor, early nineties. Anyone remember Speedball?
