quote: Rumor: Stones and DMB matchup
Posted by Joe Maliszeski 7/15/05 9:30am
Rumors have been flying around The Dave Matthews Band and The Rolling Stones teaming up again on October 6th at Scott Stadium, reports The Hook, a Charlottesville weekly newspaper that is very on-top of DMB news. The article also goes on to explain how Trey Anastasio also plays into the mix. We recommend you read the article (by Lindsay Barnes), but here are a few points. Scott Stadium isn't a typical venue that the Stones would play. The rest of the tour lineup is major cities with multiple nights. Seeing as they are playing at the MCI Center in Washington D.C. three nights before the Scott Stadium date why travel a short 110 miles south to Charlottesville? It was originally thought that DMB would be opening for the Stones, but Trey Anastasio has since been announced as the opener. That hasn't stopped the rumors though. Trey and DMB definitely have a growing history as Wednesdays Altlanta show indicates. Currently Trey, the only one stop opener for the Stones, doesn't have any shows immediately before or after the date, and John Mayer Trio will open the shows immediately before and after the Charlottesville stop. Hmmm. While it seems to make sense it's all still an rumor, though an interesting one at that.

Sounds like wishful thinking on the part of that local Charlottesville writer.
A little research would have shown that Anastasio in not "the only one stop opener for the Stones."
Of the openers announced thus far, Black Eyed Peas, The Tragically Hip, Pearl Jam and Wilco are all scheduled to open only one show. |

Wilco is opening in Atlanta.
And you're right about the Peas. Two shows, one city.
