Anyone know any of the opening acts or have heard of rumors about who may be opening for the stones in 2006 yet? |

Hopefully, there'll be a trickle of some North American support acts. Black Crowes maybe? The Thrills? Or maybe Toots & the Maytals again?
I dread the thought of Idlewild or Starsailor again. Maybe taht Spanish band that dan baird produced, Sugar Mountain?
They have a Stones-sound/look about them.
Cheers. |

The Black Crowes would be nice. Maybe Velvet Revolver because they have a new album aimed for a spring release I think. I wouldn't mind that because I am a big Weiland fan. I will be at the Little Rock show, by the way.

2006 is right around the corner. They should be releasing some opening acts soon. I can't wait. |

Motley Crue is a possibility for more shows. Wouldnt be surprised if AC/DC or Metallica were added to some of the bigger European shows. |

Black Crowes show up the Stones? not if they were anything like they were at Wembley on the Voodoo lounge tour. |

my point of reference exactly
They were shown up by the rain on that final night and made an early and much-welcomed exit!
Opening for the Stones isn't an easy task for anyone, although some acts have done well.
They were very disappointing as I'd heard great things about them

I agree, the 1995 version of the Black Crowes (particularly opening up at Wembley in July) were imo the worst performance(s) of the Crowes career. Brotherly problems I reckon.
However, the latest incarnation of the Crowes will truly blow your mind - and just like any band has "bad" gigs, the Crowes have had them too. Please don't cast them by those pathetic July 1995 shows.
Check out the Crowes doing "Coming Home" or "PreRoads Down" or "Long Long Long" on their website. You'll catch my drift.
Perhaps the invitation of the Crowes as opening act, would instigate the Stones to play a bit harder, and work a little more..? I could only hope so, for the Crowes won't let the Stones get "off" easy. (and maybe it would be adverse for the Stones to have the Crowes be the opening act).
