Jimmy Owen's List: Mr. Owens was/is a participant in two of the bands listed below.
Inspired on Christmas Day 2009 by Craig Hankin's recollection and records (the Other Craig's List), I took a stab at re-organizing this list chronologically, with some Internet searches and a lot of fuzziness in the middle. I added a couple names (and took a couple off, because I do not have a clear enough memory of where I saw the artists, let alone when). I have added locations. With a couple of exceptions, I have only listed performances where I saw a full set.
