Some of the other shows you listed were in the Centrolplex as well, but your list gives a good indication of the cool shows that used to pass through BR back in the day. I'll also add that REM played at The Bayou on Chimes Street in 1982.
The Sex Pistols played at the Kingfish in 1978 - I think that's where the Spectrum Fitness that's next to The Bulldog is now.
They had a lot of good punk and new wave shows back in the day. A librarian friend looked up the listings and I think the Ramones, Elvis Costello and the B-52s all had gigs at that club around that time.
The Pixies played the Bayou just before I enrolled at LSU in 1990. There were quite a few people on campus wearing T-shirts from that show.

I saw the Psychedelic Furs, Iggy Pop, Eric Johnson, DiVinyls, Wall of Voodoo, Rare Earth, Steppenwolf, The Neville Brothers, St. Louis Sheiks, The English Beat, and a few other bands at various incarnations of the former Kingfish (which was a Food Town grocery store when I was a kid).
