  • Awesome, indeed, but they are headlining festivals/arenas on their own. This won't happen ;)

    I know. It wouldn't be so much an opening act as a double show...maybe in Charlotte:) I haven't been this impressed with a band since PJ hooked me some time long long ago. Feels good, feels right, feels real. Saw them again in Clemson the other nite, such a freaking blast----the authenticity just reminds of PJ in so many ways.

    If we're looking for some good jamgrass to open the tour, I'd love to see Yonder Mountain String Band tour with PJ.

    lol, good one. I've been referring to them as "southern grunge"....i like "grungegrass"...i'm going to use that one too:)

    I knew some quality stuff would come back round...who would have ever thought it would be utilized in folk/bluegrass form?

    Seeing as this is a "fill in the blank" thread...

    If Avett Brothers Opened for PJ...I'd be pissed. "Adult Alternative" grosses me out.

    I mean what I say (I don't care for Avett Brothers), but I say it lightheartedly. If enough people would be pumped for it, that means the crowds for PJ would be electric and fun. :)

    You certainly have a right to your opinion but have you seen them perform live? If not, give it a try...you may think differently.

    My two favorite bands. That would be my dream concert.

    . . . they would most definitely upstage Pearl Jam. Their live show is a tremendously amazing experience -- I haven't seen any band in recent history give it the way they do, and their audiences go nuts in a way that a PJ audience just doesn't anymore. I love the grown men from Seattle, trust me -- no slam on PJ -- but the younger Avett Brothers bring a passion to their live performance that right now is unmatched in the music industry.
