Why do you guys think he would go back to openers that he already has abandoned? It doesn't make sense.

He revisited Calling Elvis in 2001 but I tend to agree with you.
Correct me if i am wrong bus was not CE going to be opener in 2015 untill some shouted Broken Bones :smack

Yeah, that was me.   :smack

Don't say anything now then DMG  ;D

NDT is quite an odd choice for an opener... Thought about the last tours and to me, Border Reiver 2010 was the best opener so far. What do you think?

If you consider the Dire Straits period, Calling Elvis (with the percussions starting while curtain was still closed) was the best opener ever.
I have goosebumps remembering it (I was in Lyon on April 21st, 1992).

Once upon a time in the west, alchemy era with Stargazer intro. Best opener period!

Agreed. Closely followed by Ride Across The River during BIA tour.
...Well, he's a big star now but I've been a fan of his for years. The way he sings and plays guitar still bring me to tears...

Yes I said it yesterday.

1996-2013 openers > Broken Bones > Nobody Does That

Such stupid choice to remove WAM, I really enjoyed the version from Barcelona...

I think that we all agree to say that the Barcelona concert worth the download

It was a pretty solid opening gig but clearly the cobwebs are coming off now and the shows have been getting better.  Cordoba was by far and away the best concert so far and tonight in Lisbon it might well be even better.
