Re: Tour costs, how they breakdown?

I was wondering about the opening acts. Are they paid a flat amount (everybody gets the same), or are their fees negotiated on a band-by-band basis? Seems that up-and-coming bands like The Corrs, White Stripes, etc. would be willing to play for less money given the exposure they receive. But with somebody like Pearl Jam, do the Stones have to "up the ante"? Anybody know?
