Do like Rush. Dump the opening act and put on an extra long show for this final tour! The reality is that these ***(IMO) opening acts like Ratt and LA Guns aren't helping to sell tickets. 90%+ of people going are there for Scorps! They did it in Prague. Now, bring it to the USA!

:D I've been saying that for a while now--I don't want to see anyone else--just the Scorps. I would love to see a longer show!! Nothing but Scorps....Klaus singing all night long...now THAT is a show to see!!

That would be great. I hope we don't get 90 minutes. 2 hour min.

I would be bummed if they dumped the opening act. I haven't been fortune enough to see a lot of these bands so it would be nice to see an opening band and supporting band like cinderella/ratt with them.

I sure wish they would not have a opening act either and give us at least 2 hours , If they had to do a opening act one band is enough . How about something like (Danger Danger), (Trixter) like back in the early 90's or (Europe) would really be kick ass . I think even a new Modern Rock band would get more people and open up a new generation of fans if they had to do a package deal which...... In reality the Scorpions do not need a opening band . but 2 plus hours for our last time is a must.

When I go to see the guys on the final tour I want to see them for as long as possible. I don't want a support band no matter who they are!
I notice support acts are confirmed already in Europe, I just hope they ditch this for the UK dates.

I could see AC/DC, KISS, Maiden or Metallica support the Scorps on this tour and still be wishing they'd hurry up and finish before the first song ended. No support act for the UK please!

Scorps have more then enough hits to play to keep fans entertained without a supporting band.
I say all Scorpions!!!

They can do a opening act , maybe if you like it you get more for your money.
I see some good opening acts with other bands , who make it great now.
They still can do a long concert.
In 2006 I see Bon Jovi who had 2 opening acts and still play four 2h30min.

By the way in 1976 Scorpions were opening act for Kiss in Europe , many people find out the music of Scorpions at that time , me at 14 going to 15 learn to know about them than.
So you see what good comes out to be a opening act.

Klaus would not last without an opening act. As it is, the Scopions keep Coast To Coast and Kottak Attack on the setlist to give the vocals a breather.

So while it would be great, it is not realistic.
