I actually saw the Rolling Stones during the "Tattoo You" tour - it was the LA Coliseum in October of 1981. Maybe that was their last good album but I really liked "Emotional Rescue".

"Down In The Hole" was probably the best track on that particular album.

Who opened for them? I saw them in 1981 in Houston and Dallas and they had the Fabulous Thunderbirds and ZZ Top as opening acts. They had big names as opening acts that whole tour.

BTW, they played Emotional Rescue on this year's tour, to my surprise. (I am a huge fan, and have seen them six times, including this year at Staples Center.)

George Thorogood and the J. Geils Band opened for the Stones on that concert. Also Prince - yes, that same Prince who would go on to be a superstar. Yet that day, Prince was chased off the stage with a cacophony of boos.

BTW, George Thorogood tore the roof off that place. I didn’t think the Stones would be able to top it but they somehow did.
