How amazing would it be to have BMG backing up the boys on their next tour? The possibilities on WMA alone are huge! Anyone else like to see this?

    I don't get the Blue Man Group. In fact, i think it's(they're?) rather stupid and boring.

    that would be awesome! i had no idea what to expect when I saw BMG, but I loved them...and actually, I think their back-up band is amazing...that would make for a fun show :-)

    Glad to see some support! :D To each their own but I'd hardly call them boring!

    BMG creep me out. And I've seen some pretty ugly shit in my life.

    McCready, Ament, Vedder, Gossard, & Cameron playing "2,000 Mile Blues" would be blue enough for me.

    I dig the strings moment of the show. On the '10 tour, I hope they use them more for other songs other then the Backspacer tracks.

    I wish they'd ditch the strings as well,since it makes for an obvious 1st encore night after night. But i'm sure they'll be there for the upcoming tour. Just breathe and the end are cool to here with strings and i'll bet there cool to here without strings.
    Go Birds!!!!

    I think do this whole "tour" while supporting Backspacer with strings, then they can lose them if they want. I don't mind strings on songs which recorded with them.

    Yes (I wasnt a fan of the backup singers at msg)
    I am a fan of BMG, but maybe not with PJ
    Strings, however :)
