You're both right. Josie and the Pussycats opened for the U.S. portion of
tour. There was a falling out with Reggie and Josie in Detroit when he
caught her with Richochet Rabbit doing the wild thing in her dressing room.
Reggie and Josie were engaged you see. That's when Scooby Doo came in and
finished out the remaining 6 cities. The U.K. portion of the tour had the
Flinstones opening which was a mistake as they had only one album out at the
time and it wasn't even released in Britain yet. The U.K. only new the
Flintstones for the single: "Yabba Dabba Doo Time" so they were one of the
acts you hear about being booed off stage.

Love and Arrowheads,
