Whiskey Myers worth it
StP opened in Buffalo 2015...
Otis/Blues Brothers feel going on = worth it
I like him too but not sure how his sound will come across in a stadium. I guess we will see.
I just posted about them in the main tour thread,Chicago are in for a surprise.
I saw Whiskey Meyers a few months ago thinking they were a country band and walked away calling them Lynyrd Zeppelin.
One of the best new bands I’ve heard in years.
Tyler Childers is also amazing but I don’t know how he’ll do in a stadium in front of a crowd that doesn’t know him but he’s really talented,kids like a young Bob Dylan.
Also....
Am I missing something too?
Why are we talking about Tyler Childers here?
Saw him open at the San Diego Zip Code opener in '15 - average.
He did come back on stage and guest on Bitch, but that was also average.
All and all, nice choice for an opener - could have been much worse - maybe he'll guest again on a tune.

Tough to say.. I'm betting Neil would have let Lucas and co have the whole spotlight.. but maybe not. Coin flip as well on whether they would have opened sandwiched in between their own headlining gigs. Be interesting to get info some day on the rescheduling of the support acts. Glad for the band either way they will be without Neil in a way.. better exposure for them I think.
I’m racking my brain, was there an opening act for the 2013 tour? I was at this wonderful show and it was great to see Gary Clark join the band on Going Down!!! Hoping he shows up on stage again in Foxboro.
My reply was in response to TornAndFried's comment "not sure how his sound will come across in a stadium" - the San Diego '15 Zip Code show I saw him open for was at Petco Park - a massive baseball stadium.
I thought his set was average, and he didn't carry over well in such a large venue, but he might have been better in a much smaller/intimate arena or theater. His guess spot on Bitch was also nothing to write home about.
Saw him on SNL recently and thought the same - not bad, but not really great either....average. Again though, not a bad choice for an opener, and it could have been much worse - I'm sure you'll enjoy it considering how much you already like him.

Yawn. Mostly third rate acts. I guess they are trying to appeal to younger audiences? I remember all the great opening acts they had in the tours from 1994 to 2007. I won't bother trying to get to the stadium early for any of this lot.

The only two openers worth a damn are Lukas Nelson and Gary Clark Jr.......neither of which are at my shows! Oh well.....
<edit>
Nathaniel Ratelife & The Nightsweats were great at Bottle Rock.
I'm going to Chicago #1, Santa Clara and Santa Barbara and never heard of any of the openers LOL!

Aw shit,sorry guys. A friend told me Tyler might be doing a couple of shows with the Stones and I didn’t look at the schedule close enough just assuming he was on it.
My bad.
I don’t know some of the acts on there either but knowing the quality of the ones I do know makes me want to check out the others.
Hats off to the Stones for picking real musicians instead of radio garbage.

Nice POTR in Seattle. I can't help wonder if they were slated to open for The Stones on May 22, the day after Neil & POTR played at The Paramount. Maybe Neil scheduled his Seattle & Eugene shows so POTR could play on the day off. The prospect of Neil playing with POTR while opening for The Stones wouldn't have been out of the question...ah well,,.can only speculate now...

Hairball, so I see you're not impressed wit Gary Clark Jr....I think he's a perfect fit for the Stones as an opener....very bluesy, right in their wheelhouse! I saw him as their opener twice in Boston, as I mentioned, and he has a great sound....I think he's shy! I know that sounds funny but he was just on Saturday Night Live---SNL-- a few months ago and he's just not a real strutter but very solid. He has a brand new cd that I think I'll have to check out before July 7. I wonder too how he'll sound in that stadium, TornandFried... time will tell but all I know is that I am relieved after seeing the rest of the opening acts...mostly putrid!
