From what I've seen no PJ fans like Sleater-Kinney, Sonic Youth, Ted Leo What do PJ fans listen to in 2009 don't tell me just PJ and KOL!!! Ted Leo was great last year just wasn't his cup of tea in a big arena.
I liked Ted Leo and Sleater-Kinney Never got to see Sonic Youth
Let's just please not mention Robert Pollard. Please

I am really sad that Pearl Jam fans have this feeling about Ted Leo. I have to say, though, that I can see why. I was completely BLOWN AWAY when I saw Ted Leo in San Diego at the Casbah, which is a small club venue. Also, when I saw them at the Metro in Chicago they were unbelievable! When I saw them open for Pearl Jam, though, it just wasn't the same. His energy just doesn't come through in that setting. I hope that maybe some of the people that have only been exposed to them from when they opened for PJ give them a chance at a smaller venue or at least check out Shake the Sheets, because that is really an awesome album! Probably best, though, for someone else to open for PJ...Sorry Ted!

oh hello I know you
Yeah I have seen SK before just not with PJ.. They were great. Sonic Youth are a great band and were really impressive in 2006. Listen to some Ted Leo on youtube people!
I'm just flying around the other side of the world to say I love you
Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl
I love you forever and forever

The Buzzcocks, The Futureheads and Ted Leo all suffered form the same thing in my opinion ... all were much better in a smaller venue. I love all three bands, have seen them all in small clubs several times and they killed it. In the bigger venues, their sound fell a bit flat and the energy sucks because a majority of the people are so intollerant for anything other than PJ. (I remember telling someone next ot me to shut the hell up as he was yelling shit during the Buzzcocks)
But, Ted's getting a second shot at this ... I'll garauntee he's much tighter and the sound is far better than it was at MSG last year.
I'll also bet he shares a good laugh about it with the fans in Toronto and Philly.

The Buzzcocks, The Futureheads and Ted Leo all suffered . . . their sound fell a bit flat
PJ is as guilty as any other headlining band for using intentionally bad levels for opening bands to make their set that much better - not saying its a malicious/spiteful thing... seems to be the norm for every concert ive ever been too... just obnoxiously loud openers

Opening bands for PJ suffer from the whole 'PJ is better than anyone else' crazy cult thing we have going on. Pearl Jam have had some of the best and greatest American and English bands ever. Every 10c member should give the bands a go. I they have had The Ramones, Sonic Youth, Iggy Pop, MMJ, Johnny Marr, Frank Black, Ben Harper. The list goes on and on.
I just want a wilco/PJ show

I'm sure you're referring to Ted Leo but who is is really loud? It comes back to your taste in music vs someone else's.

havent seen ted leo open before... i mean in general... not like stylistically loud/punk/heavy stuff... just the volume is inappropriately loud compared to the levels used for the headliner... ive liked nearly all their openers... they just are never as good as they are on their own
and i would be all for a wilco/PJ ticket!!! dear lord! the encore we would get from that show! :shock:
I want a third show!!!!!!!
I want a different opener!!!!!!!!
I want PJ to give me preference because I live in Philly!!!!!!
Christ people get over it, enjoy the two shows your getting.
Yeah i have to agree this is getting crazy :oops: if you don't like the opener just wait till they are done what's so hard about that ...damm we are nuts on this board ..
I never got to see Sleater-Kinney live, but I'm surprised at the somewhat universal hate from here. I think all their albums are fantastic. I guess live makes a difference, huh.

i like their albums and liked them live at lolla... i dunno what it is :?: alot of people just dont like corins voice i guess
I HATE Ted Leo and the Pharmacists. They absolutely sucked last year! I too am hoping they don't open for PJ in Philly but if they do open I'll be sure to hang out in the parking lot for an additional hour because I'm not putting myself through listening to that shit music again.
I have a wide variety of music tastes but Ted Leo is not good! I don't care what anyone says!!!
I'm glad to see im not the only person who doesn't like Ted Leo. I saw them during MSG I and really didn't like them. So for night 2 I just ended up drinking until later and got there right as PJ was coming on.

i guess us mass-holes just have a higher standard when it comes to our rock n' roll!
anyway...i wasn't hating on Ted...i was just saying...hold the mayo...this time I'd like mustard....fuck!!....and also i am well aware i can stay in the parking lot and chill some more...but i'm the type of guy who likes to check out new music and new bands..if it wasn't for PJ i would of never listened to MMJ...but i wasn't feeling Ted...and he had his chance last year! let them put somebody else on now...or i'll just stay in the fucking lot and smoke my ass off till PJ takes the stage...it's all good to me..because i agree...it's all about PJ...i just started this thread with tongue in cheek..kinda.....like most of my threads, and now i've got Ted Leo twittering his fan (no i didn't forget the S )that PJ fans hate him!! hahahahhahahahahaha!!!!
If there is an opener, I really wouldn't care unless its a really good band. I'm there for PJ, a good opener is just a bonus.
...soundgarden. /thread.
you know that would make my face melt away right????
MERCH IDEA! limited edition face collecting buckets to be placed at your feet for such a melt-worthy hypothetical show (now if only we had a melting face emoticon... get on that 10C!)
and the bucket idea would be cool for beers too... so think about it

this shit is too funny.
i hear what youre saying... i was hoping to be introduced to something new too... the only ones getting something new (atleast to me) is europe with gomez... i wouldve like to see them... hopefully i get a chance at lolla... they put on a pretty good show on conan the other night and i like what ive heard online
happy with bad religion though... like their stuff but have never seen them live
bad religion are great, seen them at least 4 or 5 times and would love to see them play philly. definitely hope no ted leo, once in toronto will be enough this year.
Could PJ not get anyone better so they decide to call Ted Leo again? I can't help but think that.
What about the Strokes? or Queens of the Stone Age? Both would be great openers AND are friends of the band, I hear...

I have not heard any of this Ted leo's music, but a lot of you here seem to relly dislike him. Maybe if Ted Got musicians instead of pharmacists things would be better?
Bad Religion rules. Oh and for those of you that think a Ben Harper show will be mellow, you are sadly mistaken.
