Saw Big Jack Johnson twice, but it most likely ain’t the same dude as the one to which you refer.
Once at a picnic in The Grove in Oxford Miss. & later again at a small bar In The Upstates Auburn NY.
Even got to shoot the shit with him when he played there between sets and afterwards.
There’s other music of his on the itraweb but this one’s Live from the Poconos so itfits here.

I saw Motorhead in 2003 opening for Dio and Maiden at MSG, so it wasn't a proper show, only about 25 minutes--all the hits though. My big regret is never seeing Tom Waits--I overslept and missed out on tickets for a show in Oakland back in '99.
