They for sure ought to be getting soundchecks etc but logistics suck.<br /><br />Reminds me of the time my old band opened for Merle Saunders. We walked in and his ginormous Hammond Organ was front and center stage. We were like, um can you move that? Crew said no. <br /><br />So we said we would not play the show and we were a big draw in that town at the time. They moved it. But dang if that was one of the only times we got any good concessions as an opening act!<br /><br />King's X kicks so much ass. I wish we had them as openers. We got That One Guy.

King's X is currently touring with Porcupine Tree as the opener.
