My first concert ever was Eric Carmen opening for Sweet. 

I saw this tour + I remember Carmen and Artful Dodger opening for Sweet on 
the same tour at a different venue (I'm in the Cleveland area). On the subject 
of odd combos was seeing Golden Earring open for The Outlaws and Lynard Skynard 
on Easter Sunday 1976 at the Richfield Coliseum (Hey, the tickets were free).
