    I said this more than once. Silversun and PJ was almost enough to make me travel from Boston to Outside Lands. This would be great, cuz as of now Silversun's only U.S. tour dates are festivals.

    2008- Boston I+II
    2009- Toronto, Philly III+IV
    2010- Bristow, Hartford, Boston, Newark

    saw them in providence a year or so ago. crazy show. lots of fans getting up onstage and bumping into the band. still, a great show.

    +1. Way out of left field, I know, but if we don't get an "Evening with Pearl Jam", I'd love to see Beck open.

    Ted Leo was awful in DC last year... If you're going to pick someone that's already opened for them, KoL or MMJ...

    Gaslight Anthem would be a great opener too...

    different strokes for different folks. mmj and kol are headlining acts now. probably wont ever see them open up for pj again unless its a festival. gaslight is a good band.

    Agreed, but if I had to pick someone that's already opened, that'd be my choices.

    I thought Ben Harper was opening for all shows. except the spectrum.
  • Well KOL would certainly be considered a "special guest" now that they're huge, I'd love to see them open up at the Spectrum.
