Stone Sour will be touring the US next year with Papa Roach & Otherwise.

Papa Roach are the reason I didn't see Stone Sour in London a few weeks ago. It was a co-headline

I wouldn't mind seeing Stone Sour again, especially since their new album is so damn good.

I'd like to see Stone Sour again, but they've been touring with some shitty bands lately. That Avalanche tour they did was such a terrible support bill.

I don't get why people complain about things like this? Just show up late, i've done it a number of times when I didn't care or want to see the support bands. Going to a concert isn't like showing up for work, it's not a big deal to be late for a show. If you don't like the support bands, nothing says you have to see them.

Depends 100000% on the venue (i.e. how early you have to be there to get a good spot), and whether it's a co-headline or not, because that means shorter sets.

Out of curiosity, where did you hear this? This tour would be killer! If this tour is confirmed, I hope it comes to Chicago, Madison, or most ideally Milwaukee. Stone Sour are in my Top 10 bands or so that I want to see live. I also love Papa Roach and wouldn't mind seeing them live for the second time, the first time for me was in June 2010.

On the current European leg of the tour, I've heard online that Papa Roach gets about 50 minutes and Stone Sour about 80 minutes.

My reasoning for why I will bitch when there is shit support for a band I'd like to see is its harder for me to want to shell out $30+ to just see the headliner. I have a hard time wanting to see a band play 70-90 minutes and then leave. If I shell out $ for the ticket and any other concert-related expenses I, personally, don't want to show up for just a headlining band and leave. I'd rather spend the $ on a whole concert I'd want to see.

Granted, if the headliner is someone I REALLY want to see and its not a long drive then yea I'll show up late. But the majority of the time I'd much rather see a whole show I want to see. Maybe some feel this way, maybe some don't.
