hopefully someone decent is opening in anaheim. Maybe they'll pull another van halen :-D |

If for any reason sales are slow they might add a Canadian based band like Tragically Hip that would bring in a lot of their own fans....I saw Beck my heart jumped...Of course thinking (hoping) it was Jeff!....Forgot about that little Beck character... |

when i saw beck opening in toronto i thought wow, what a funky night! unfortunately i live some thousand miles from toronto
it would have been the gig of my life the band of my life + the best new thing in musictown in 10 years
i hope they collide again in europe
but then, i see you'd like better van halen and jeff beck so that nostalgia can win and take it all over
i guess it's just a matter of taste
life is unfair |

Beck opening would be INCREDIBLE.
They haven't announced the Hershey opener yet. Beck, Pearl Jam or Tragically Hip (in that order) would be great - Maroon 5 or Black-eyed Peas would NOT.
The New York Dolls are available...but maybe the Stones don't want THAT much competition... |

i really think beck fits perfectly with the stones show with his mix of country and funk. there's a nice cover of no expectations that he played with beth orton.
to me beck it's something like: what could have been the stones like if they were born in the nineties?
the answer is devil's haircut!  |

Beck is a FANTASTIC openner. I believe he is a big stones fan also. I think I saw a picture somewhere of him hanging out at the Stones' rehersals for the last tour.

Since the Stones have had acts like Pearl Jam, Bob Dylan and AC/DC among others recently, I really don't think are too concerned about competition. |

I'm going to the Toronto show (FRONT ROW!!!) and I'm kind of looking forward to seeing Beck. I don't really care about opening acts but it is a chance to see Beck without paying for it. At least he plays interesting music instead of being just another rock'n'roll wannabe band... (see below)
As for the Tragically Hip, they're ok, but living here we have endless opportunities to see them so it would have a been a let down. I hope they don't add them. |

Beck is too boring and you never could compare him with Pearl Jam, IMO. |

Well, I haven't listened to all of his stuff , but Odelay is brilliant (IMO) and I guess the new one's pretty good too.
Perhaps surprisingly (because so much of his stuff is cut & paste studio wizardry w/the Dust Bros) he's supposed to be a great live performer.
I'm still hoping Pearl Jam opens the Hershey show, since they're doing Pittsburgh a few days before that. That would definitely be great. |

I think that is a good artist, his last album is pretty good and he's a Stones fan too. |
