I have the impression the stones had very little input, on the last
couple tours, as to choosing the opening band. Some exceptions though...and
the stones probably do have some sort of final veto.

okay, i want orianthi

Do something different.

Bring in... [garibaldiarts.com]

Have him do a five Stones song set of songs that are not in the set list, doing five paintings live, finishing with one of the Mick, Keith, Charlie and Ron

Sell the originals for charity and make silkscreen copies for a reasonable price to those wanting a copy

As mentioned earlier, Peter Wolf would be a great fit. Another good fit would be the “Chicago plays the stones” band?

Peter Wolfe WOULD be great, especially in Foxboro, Mass because he's from Massachusetts I believe. Awesome harp player, maybe he could jam with Mick during Rambler!

Wolf was born in the Bronx, the Harp player would be Magic Dick. But yes he has strong MASS ties

Yes he's opening for KISS so he'll be busy the next couple years.

I assume opening acts are chosen depending on ticket sale numbers. Shortly sold out concerts don't need another great name as opening act and vice versa ...

zac brown band.....1st up

Like Van Halen, I'm guessing we're going to get more "t-shirt bands", bands that suck so much you go out to the merch area and spend money buying Stones tshirts.

Personally, I've never heard of them. I'm not attending that show either. Maybe the other opening acts went be so bad though. Hoping Houston has a good opening act since I'll be attending that show.

I know theres a lot of hate for country on here, but Zac Brown puts on a good show. I saw him open for the Eagles last year and many of the people around us were skeptical at first but really into it by the end. Killer harmonies and all badass musicians, not a canned/tracked show like many of the other acts out of Nashville these days.

I love Jason Isbell, but he would set a pretty dark mood for the evening. Aside from Super 8 and Hope the High Road theres not many upbeat songs.

Maybe Luther Dickinson - has the Stones connection with his father, Jim, playing piano on Wild Horses.

Please Gary Clark, Jr. in Chicago!

UPDATE: Shoot, I just checked, he is in Europe this summer.
