My two cents: Lindsey shouldn't have an opening act.
He'd be better off spending that money on live backing vocals and percussion so he doesn't have to sample so much of them. It sounds too artificial.
Stevie tours with percussion and backing vocals. Lindsey samples those elements. All things equal, I prefer live performers to samples. I wonder how much more in the way of live elements Lindsey could afford to incorporate if he didn't have to pay an opening act.
Of course, the samples may be Lindsey's preference rather than the product of budgetary considerations.
