Have any famous entertainers/bands performed a show at your school's stadium before? (Not basketball arena)

The last concert to take place at Neyland was when Kenny Chesney was the headliner of a show in '03 that included the supporting acts of Brooks & Dunn, Rascal Flatts, Keith Urban, and Deana Carter. LINK

The only other concert before that was when Michael Jackson made an appearance on his "Victory Tour" in 1984. LINK

Don't know about Razorback Stadium, but War Memorial in Little Rock (home away from home) has hosted the Rolling Stones and the Eagles.
(I can't remember for sure if Billy Joel/Elton John was in the stadium or not, but I *think* it was.)

Our basketball arena and football stadium host the Walmart shareholders events. So we've had the likes of Elton John, Dave Matthews, JayZ and Beyonce, Taylor Swift, John Mayer, and many many more.

The university also hosts a concert series every semester for students where I've seen John Mayer, T.I., Snoop Lion, O.A.R, Third Eye Blind, The Fuji Fighters, Eric Church and a few more

The MDB did a Michael Jackson tribute a couple years ago. That's as close as I know of.

Jason Aldean, Ludacris, Rhett Atkins, Luke Bryan are the only official concert to ever have played in Sanford Stadium (this past April).

However, James Brown played at halftime way back when so he is probably the biggest performer.

Johnny Rodriguez and Ronnie Milsap were annual regulars at G. Rollie White back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth and I was in school. Good shows. There was never an act big enough to require Kyle Field.

U2 played a show in Vanderbilt Stadium for some fricking reason a couple years ago.

In relation to football stadiums, Billy Graham did a revival in Legion Field....that's all I got.
