Since there is no Ben Harper opening, who, if anyone, do you think will be the opening act?

    That would be absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! Dr. Dog just announced their Fall tour dates and they're doing 2 shows at the TLA in Philly on October 24 and 25. Could they do 2 more in Philly on the 28th and 30th?? It'd be a dream come true, my 2 favorite bands at my favorite venue...

  • **edit - you just beat me***

    Dr. Dog tickets go on sale this Friday, so maybe they want to sell out the TLA shows before they're announced as the opener?? **Wishful Thinking**

    Special Guests. Most likely Bruce. Bruce is playing the last show at the Spectrum no date yet. Hopefully the 31st.

    Damn, does Bruce just close down every soon-to-be-demolished venue now? He's the final performer at Giants stadium too.
    Venues are gonna be scared to let him play, he'll be the harbinger of demolition.

    Rumor out there is that the 31st could be a multi-performer hard to get ticket that would include Bruce and PJ...

    I hope you get this message but your not home...I will be there in just a minute or so...

    That's a negative...Bruce already played his last two shows there....Would be sick if he came out though..
  • embraceembrace Posts: 849
    You know I would :) I think though he meant he would have an impossible time getting one,though. I get the impression that it was a conversation that was out there and actually maybe for Sunday night (as PJ may have the 31st reserved)but nothing was concrete

    from what Matt Cord on MMR said today, Jeff was quoted not long ago as wanting the Trifecta, they played the last show at the Boston Garden, Chicago (Arena/Center) and was hoping to be the last for the Spectrum, which could be 10/31, pending no later dates. Can you imagine on Halloween, the last show in that building?? :shock:
    I met my wife here...you can too! Don't lose hope!
