One impressive opening act that comes to mind was when I went to see Mastodon at Terminal 5 on The Hunter tour in 2011. I was standing around with the few other early arrivals as Red Fang started their opening set and...immediately nailed me to the floor. They were tight, raucous, melodic, inventive - all the things I could want from heavy music. I even bought their Murder The Mountains CD on the way out. Mastodon were unbelievably great, of course, but Red Fang were the perfect warmup!
