The Wick Rocks Off Regular Offline Posts: 972	Re: BEST STONES OPENING ACT Reply #2 - Aug 19^th, 2008 at 2:39pm I had the horror of listening to Jason Mraz for over a good hour. Just unbearable. They have had some shocking acts over the years and a lot of them seem to stem from Mick's tastes. Lowest point ever though was having that fake from NStink on stage with the Stones.

Stones should just do what Bruce does and forget the opener.. but then they don't play for three hours anymore, do they?
