I'm gonna throw in the bad fucken brains. As long as HR can get/keep his shit together, I'm down. Oh and I also would like to throw in gaslight anthem. Only fitting....
I think HR might attack some the these PJ rail hugging listers.
He's so shot bro. Hahaha but I love the guy
Edit-thread high jack, saw them on a fucken boat in the Hudson, dead front row rail, right in front of HR. He gave me a hug after the show and said wow, you survived that.! It was insane, people jumping off the 2nd floor into the pit. Crazy shit, had a woman come up to me after the show and tapped me on the shoulder, said,"I just wanted to see who you are, I saw your back and all the pounding you guys were taking but not bailing. I wanted to see your face!" Hahahaha
How about Mumford and Sons with PJ? That would be an awesome clash of styles. It would be great to get a whole new generation in the building to see how PJ tears down a place.
How about someone newer? The Weeks or Thee Oh Sees? THAT would be a show!
What? Negative on Mumford? Both of their albums are outstanding and they are so different and unique to anything else that is passing for 'popular', outside of Jack.
Not a fan at all Brah. Their music doesn't do it for me.
Maybe ALT-J. That would be interesting if I couldn't have The Weeks play with them.
Yeah, I really don't like M&S. All of their songs sound the same IMHO. Never heard of ALT-J.... to youtube!
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata
Anyone BUT My Morning Jacket...
They are my second favorite band & also consistently play 3 hour shows!!!
After seeing them only get a 30 minute set on the Americanarama tour with wilco & Bob Dylan,
I NEVER want to see them open a show again,
they are just as worthy of headliner status as Pearl Jam!!!

MMJ or RHCP---anyone who has been down on RHCP because John left needs to reconsider. Josh can hold his own. Im With You is underrated, and I feel their new record in 2015 will eclipse that with the band as a whole getting more comfortable with Josh. He's by no means John, but the band as a whole is still a monster and always will be. Them and PJ are my top 2. Each band has songs for every single emotion and not many bands can do that effectively.
"lesser known bands"- Black Rebel Motorcycle Club or Gaslight Anthem
i've seen a few cool co-headlining tours:
RHCP and Foo Fighters in '00
NIN and QOTSA in '05
Rob Zombie and Korn in '99

Since we are in Make Believe Land, how about Sublime (with Brad) opening for PJ? That would be just beautiful. And Lou Dog could hang out in the pit with us.
If not a full tour, how about we hold PJ25 next year at the Gorge and MMJ is the only other band invited and opens and plays a full set before PJ plays.
And oh yeah, PJ plays about a 10 song acoustic set in the afternoon before MMJ. A la Mansfield 2003.

making pj fans wait in a ga pit for any opening band is a bad move
springsteen is aware of this
If the Avett Brothers played first, the place would go crazy.
I vote for the Avett Brothers. They would be an excellent warm-up to PJ. Different sound, but definitely one of the best live acts out there. Great songwriters.
If it cut the PJ set short, I would prefer no co-headliner.
If PJ played the same amount of time, my two choices would be:
Neil & Crazy Horse
or Umphrey's McGee as an opener with an 90 minute set.
If you are not familiar with Umphrey's McGee, check out some of their music on their youtube page linked here. I am sure some PJ fans would enjoy them.
I already said it would be each band playing like 25 songs each so it would be about 4 to 4.5 hours total, and it would only be for one tour which is like 3 weeks nowadays, it's not like I am suggesting that this would be anything permanent, just something a little different for like 10 or 12 shows, but obviously it would have to be a really great band to co headline with Pearl Jam

Old school....Allman Brothers Band
ABB would be great. Do we get Dicky and Duane?
Greg Yes
Duane No (rip)
Well this is all fantasy in my book. So I've got to see Duane! He's a legend.
Janes addiction
Black crows
Zeppelin w Ed replacing Plant.
But mostly wouldn't want co headliner.
If the Avett Brothers played first, the place would go crazy.
I vote for the Avett Brothers. They would be an excellent warm-up to PJ. Different sound, but definitely one of the best live acts out there. Great songwriters.
Kings of Leon, QOTSA or Soundgarden opening for Pearl Jam.
Or Pearl Jam opening for Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin.
Those would be fair.
2012: Arras, Berlin 1-2
2013: Sao Paulo, Buenos Aires
2014: Milano, Trieste, Vienna, Berlin
2016: NY MSG 1
If PJ played the same amount of time, my two choices would be:

or Umphrey's McGee as an opener with an 90 minute set.

Happy Birthday, Eddie!
If it involves a farewell tour that really isn't one, but we will say it is one so we can charge higher ticket prices, NO THANKS
If it involves Pearl Jam co headlining with Pearl Jam then BRING IT ON
If I had to pick I would want My Morning Jacket
