Yeah, some bands are out of their minds with the openers. We had one concert where they really wore us down with them. By the time the headliner came out, it was almost 3 hours late and we didn't stay for the whole show. Honestly, I'll probably never be on time for a show again after that experience. They should have a concert start time and a headliner start time so people can plan according of when they want to come.

But then everyone would skip the openers and it would defeat the point of opening for a bigger band to get exposure.

The people who don't want to see openers aren't going to buy their music anyway

You never know. A decent nunber of popular bands started out opening for older, well established ones before they reached that level themselves.
