I'm sure you know this, but you're in for a treat. I've seen him twice now and he tore the roof off the place both times.

I saw them open for Slipknot back in 2009 and they were pretty good. The best opener I've seen was probably Baz in 2010... or Duff in 2011 Baz was great! I'd have to go with him or Soundgarden for my favorite opening act. But then I was front row for Soundgarden a few years later and it was like a different band. They found grunge success, so Chris Cornell went from being very active and fun to watch while opening for GNR, to making zero eye contact with anyone in the crowd and acting like he wanted to be anywhere else. They changed his mic after nearly every song too for some reason. It's still the most disappointing concert experience I've had. The friend I attended the show with also hated it, but he saw a Cornell solo show years later and still raves about how great it was and how personable he was that night. Anyway, sorry if my stroll down memory lane interrupted the fun Dick's jokes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think be opened Denver in 2016 or 2017 I wasn't familiar with him until he played SNL and absolutely killed it. I usually give the musical act a chance, but I tend to lose interest quickly and speed through the rest of the song and the second song. That wasn't an issue with Sturgill. Best SNL performance in a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A dream lineup. I should have included FNM on my list of favorite openers. Unfortunately, the crowd was slowly filling in and didn't seem to care. FNM deserved so much better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosiers theme? 😄 If Axl designs it it might feature that old lady from the ice cream stand that was in that TV segment about his sudden rise to fame.

cineater Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Opening night for Dead and Company. Sold out show in NC. Not sure what time they take the stage. The party in the parking lot got 2.2K in views. May not be your thing but if the link goes out and you want me to hit you with another one, let me know. Green Day is probably playing some where if you prefer them for an opener but I'm not looking for them tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t rub it in mate 🤣 I jest….having FNM on there is a cracking bonus. Angel Dust would have been ready to explode at that time too. Just an awesome time really!

Pskihq92 Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 The Trews put on a great show back in 2006. Was front row at that show at 14 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampireSoul Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 I've only been around once for the opening acts and they were The Darkness and Michael Monroe in 2017. Otherwise I was just in time for GN'R and once I got wasted while Axl was late 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeman5150 Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Baz was probably the best opener I’ve seen. 06’ and 11’ he was great. Also dug the suicide girls in 06’ worst for me was bullet for my valentine. Just stood there and stared at their shoes the whole time. Was also disappointed by kenny kravits. He didn’t play some of his biggest songs. I’d think as an opener, you wouldn’t be afforded the opportunity to play your deep tracks, but rather the few that the crowd may actually know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W. Axl Kev Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Have we deployed a forum member tonight to the show? Really curious to see if the tweet about it being "out of control" had more to it than just general hype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibson87 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) Dick's can only hold 27,000 for concerts. That's kinda small. Or is it average sized? I can't remember Edited August 17, 2021 by Gibson_Guy87 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
