Very, very famous small venue that a lot of famous musicians have played in.

As far as unknowns, I saw Phish open twice for Col. Bruce Hampton in 1990 or so. Could hot have been more than a few dozen people at one of them.

Bigger scale, I saw a new college band R.E.M. open for The Police. Radio Free Europe was just hitting the college airwaves. And — they were awful.
