Have you ever gone to a concert that had multiple artists you wanted to see and had none of them cancel out on you?

Best gig I ever went to did have the Jam pull out early in the tour, but I knew that, and no one pulled out at the last moment, so I think it counts: the bill was the Slits, Subway Sect, the Buzzcocks and the Clash. The Clash always had terrific support when I saw them - Richard Hell & the Voidoids the next time, and an impressively eclectic pair of the Coventry Specials and Suicide, but I'd never heard of the Specials at that point, so it doesn't quite count.

some blind albino bluesman (who rocked).

Oh no! Someone gouged Johnny Winter's eyes out?

I went to go see a Blackalicious/Del double bill at First Ave in 2000 and Blackalicious cancelled/no-showed. Busta Rhymes also no-showed Smokin' Grooves '96 in St. Paul, which was a shame because if he hadn't I might've become a fan a lot earlier.

(A consequence of Busta no-showing: Cypress Hill's set was twice as long. Even the stoners got antsy.)
