Major acts only please. Yeah, I know, they may be regionally famous, the best band you've ever seen live, etc., etc. But lets keep it to acts that have received a reasonable level of success and are relatively know. :-D
I've seen quite a few, and thinking about it, it has gotten to be quite an impressive list (although surely not as impressive as some).
In no particular order:
Aerosmith (3 times)
Metallica (5 times)
Van Halen (w/Hagar twice)
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Santana
Eagles
Ted Nugent
Queensryche (3 times)
Bon Jovi (as an opening act)
Poison
Ozzy
Pantera
Anthrax
Dio
Megadeth
Rush
Triumph
Scorpions
RATT
Dokken
Iron Maiden
The Who
Pat Benatar
Melissa Etheridge
Kenney Chesney
Lady Antebellum
Miranda Lambert
Bad Company (OK it really wasn't Bad Company at that point, just the guitarist and the name, no Paul Rodgers, so it really shouldn't count)
Jimmmy Buffett
The Beach Boys
Of course I left off most of the opening acts because they never quite got to that level.
