    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    Ditch the openers. Give us an evening with Pearl Jam! Two sets would give us time to hang out more and this way they could play 3 hour shows with a break in between. Only potential problem would be Eddie getting too wasted at the set break.

    Conversations getting dull
    There's a constant ringing in my ears
    Sense of humor's void and numb
    And I'm bored to tears.......

    i also agree that MMJ are too big to open for PJ. MMJ fans don't want to see them play for just one hour, and there's enough of us to fill up some decent sized theaters.


    i'd like to see Pearl Jam and Mudhoney kick out the jams together again.


    Wow that was fuckin' great.....

    No one,they should do an acoustic sit down set take a half hour break and then come back and kick our asses plugged in.

    Agreed

    Liars - saw them opening for Radiohead and it was an exciting show...don't know if they fit Pearl Jam's style, though.

    No nothing was announced and this is just for fun. Which band would you like to see open for PJ for their next tour- whenever that will be.

    My pick goes to Wolfmother, pretty popular and some good songs.
    The BLACK KEYS

    I think it's awesome when PJ brings us new music. Ben Harper in '94 was amazing and forever made me a fan. That being said, check out:

    KOL- new album due out in the Fall (I think) and besides, is there anyone else?

    KOL should be the only band to open for Pearl Jam
  • Yellow LedbellyYellow Ledbelly Posts: 3,749
    Definitely Ben Harper. As much as I love MMJ and KOL there should be some variety. I would love to see Social Distortion with them as well

    Black Keys and Black Mountain would be good ones too
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    The National

    If that ever happened, I would then look forward to being moved to tears by Pearl Jam AND the opener. sigh....if only...
    Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

    people complained about MMJ putting them to sleep there would be no end to the bitching about black mountain

    That would not bother me a bit. They put on a good show.
