Don't panic yet. I saw them live earlier this year, and have to say they were a blast live. It was fun. Alot of what they do isn't twangy country, and they are pretty damn good showmen. I really think this is one of those things you have to have an open mind about, no matter what you hear on a record, what they do live is a whole different thing. You may not ever love it, but it's not depressingly bad either.

I won' judge them until I see them on the 28, that being said....who cares?
It's only an opening act. I mean, I like a good opening act (I can't wait to see AAR on Nov. 10) but in the grand scheme of things, it's not who I'm there to see.
On the plus side, this does kindoff confirm a tour, doesn't it?

They're very talented singers and songwriters. Their show is WILD too. But the show isn't wild to make up for lack of talent. The spectacle doesn't mask the fact that they actually have talent. I wish they (or Daughtry) were the opening act at the shows I'm attending instead of this My Chemical Romance group which I know nothing about! LOL

Big and Rich are by far the worst thing in music history. I'm really not trying to be facetious here, I actually have never come across worse music then that which this retarded duo make. They're ****ing awful.

hahahahaha..."retarded duo" that's perfect. they also look like dolts. If I go to any of the shows, I'll make sure to take in some tomatoes. Those should do the job fairly well and the crowd will be entertained. They'll think it's Alice Cooper throwing blood onto the audience.

Joke aside, they'll have an extremely hard time especially in Germany.

They are horrible, but it's a nice opportunity to get rid off your diarrea. Afterwards you can enjoy Bon Jovi with an empty stomach.

I don't think so. Same procedure as every tour. A support act is pronounced (not even in this case) and some people start the moaning and bitching without even knowing the music. The people who are moaning and bitching the loudest won't do anything or say anything by the time the show comes.
There will be a lot of people who are openminded and will enjoy the show. And there will be some people who' ll buy their tickets to see B&R and not BJ.
Believe it or not. B&R sold tickets in Germany before without the help of Bon Jovi.
