The "worst opening band" thread inspired this one.
What opening band did you want to see more than the headliner, and then you left before the headliner started?
I bought tickets to an Elvis Costello show to see the Replacements open...and then left before Costello hit the stage.
I had gone to see Ratt with Poison opening, more because I wanted to see Poison (must have been the summer of '86). The sound was so bad we left a few songs into Ratt's set. That one may not count, I probably had every intention of staying for the whole show.
And oh yeah, I left after DLR opened the Pittsburgh show on the '02 tour with Hagar. Guy at the gate asked me where I was going, and said "the show's not over yet" I said "yeah, it is."
