They «tried» that in 1994/95, too, with great success
PS: Stones singles aren't exactly obscure, are they?
SFM was a good 1.
I think the O2 2012 setlist was merely an attempt to put down a chronical programm. They could have tried Come On instead I Wanna Be Your Man, but I guess it was a kind of "thank you" gesture toward the Beatles?
How about opening with "Please Go Home" ? (Joke
)
At the three London shows Miss You was before Midnight Rambler. Also, Miss You was a revelation, much better than on previous tours.

Well Jagger admitted NFAway as an opener was a disaster. A show start needed a fast tight song to grab the audience by the neck. Hence the choice of "Satisfaction" for the 97/98 tour.
And I'm sure a late 1963 (!) single was obscure to 95% of the O2 audience in 2012.
Plus it contradicted Jagger's policy about the Stones : keeping it contemporary, making the Stones a 2012 band, not a 1960's band that happens to be still active in 2012... or 2013... or 2019!
Or 2029!
When did Mick say that?
If he did say that, surely they would have changed it to something more familiar.
BTW I Wanna Be Your Man was a great opener at the first O2 show in 2012.
Fag break and a few fuzz-chords. Just play it!

Stones could open with "Little by Little" this time!
Imho they tried this trick (opening a show with an ancient obscure tune) at the London 2012 "resurrection" shows and it didn't work at all.
So Jagger decided to open shows with a warhorse (which is much wiser imo again).

They'll likely stick to the tried and true, something that casual fans recognize. They've been together 56+ years and have put out 22 new songs this century. I don't expect innovation at this point.

Little by Little, Route 66 or Come On would be a good opener. Star F ucker would be the best opener!

Please guys... Cmon... Yeah, surely they will open with Little by Little, She Said Yeah, Can You Hear The Music, I Just Wanna See Your Face or Cocksucher Blues 
But okay, if you wanna dream a bit here, I'll let you dream...
I will be satisfied if they open with a blasting SFM again just as they did last year

they need to stop following Midnight Rambler with Miss You,it kills the momentum and I’m surprised Mick doesn’t see that.

At most concerts last year Miss You was one of the best received songs, along with Like A Rolling Stone. In 2014 Miss You kinda lame, too fast and rushed but last tour it kinda had that nightclub feel that the original recording has. And the crowd loved it. And if 70.000 people dig a song, why should anything be wrong with it? Honestly at a stadium show I rather hear a warhorse with all people around me digging it that hearing a rare song with all people around me talking or sitting down. And I guess the band feels the same way.Quote

So the spotlight would be on Chuck during the opening song. And what would Keith and Ronnie play? Some fills between the piano part. And they don’t owe us anything absolutely nothing.Quote

Only Keith could of come up with Slipped my tongue in some else's pie just like Keith on Live With Me - My Best Friend Shoots water rats
Coming down again, coming down again
Coming down again, coming down again
Share your thoughts, there's nothing you can hide
She was dying to survive
I was caught, oh, taken for a ride
She was showing no surprise
Coming down again, coming down again
Where are all my friends? Coming down again
Coming down again, coming down again
On the ground again, coming down again
Slipped my tongue in someone else's pie
Tasting better every time
She turned green and tried to make me cry
Being hungry it ain't no crime
Coming down again, all my time's been spent
Coming down again
Coming down again, coming down again
Coming down again, coming down again
Coming down again, coming down again
Where are all my friends?
Coming down again, coming down again
Coming down again, coming down again
Where are all my friends? Comin
