London support?

It looks as if Incubus are supporting PJ at Nijmegen. To say that I hope they are supporting at Wembley is an understatement! Incubus were fantastic at the Astoria in November and are one of my favourite bands. But I can't see them playing Wembley. Any idea of who may? Whoever will be playing warm up though, you can more or less promise them a full floor!
:D Rock on!!!! :D
Seen Pearl Jam 4 times in London, once in Manchester, as well as an Eddie show at Hammersmith.

    I'd love it if Incubus opened... I really hope they are!!

    Too right! Be sort of like the dream gig for me! Fav band (PJ) headlining and Incubus supporting! I saw them at the Astoria and wasn't bothered about seeing their other dates in the big arenas, plus the dates were very poor. But having said that, PJ and Incubus would be brill. I should really try to get to Holland!
    :D Rock on!!!! :D

    Blind Melon and Chris Cornell would also be great!

    But, I'm sure Alice in Chains have said they have no plans to tour outside North America :(

    Well there's an up and coming band called Rage Against the Somethingorother who are playing the odd date in the US..

    http://www.stuff.co.nz/stuff/waikatotimes/3938932a4500.html

    I am sure they would be given a decent reception...!!!
    :D Rock on!!!! :D

    I saw Audioslave in Manchester who were brilliant. And then they did a few Rage songs and the crowd went bananas! But alas I really can't see them (either Audioslave or RATM) doing a PJ support slot!!
    :D Rock on!!!! :D

    I really hope Incubus aren't opening in London. Nothing personal, I would rather not have to put myself through half an hour of nasal vomit and nu-metal.

    god help the person who is standing in front of me if incubus walk in stage cus ill puke violently over them. Yea cornell will have his solo album out in march he could tag along which would rule

    incubus are too big to open for them here. expect someone you;ve never heard of but who are ball-shatteringly good. i doubt it will be anyone mainstream.
    If music be the food of love, play on.

    i dont know its never happened to me before. hopefully we'll find out.

    For something completely different, wouldn't mind seeing someone like Rancid, Dropkick Murphys or the Bouncing Souls open for PJ. All damn fine live acts who know how to get a crowd going!

    Hold on here - am I missing something? Didn't Shannon Hoon have a small incident a decade or so ago? Did they get a new front man? Sorry to act so clueless, but they are one of those great bands that I really haven't heard anything from in a long time....

    Pearl Jam should employ the services of swedishnorweigen/LA band 'big bang', saw them support the raconteurs at nottingham and they were awesome.

    Get Biffy Clyro down from Scotland.....they'd be perfect.

    If PJ are stuck for support as they were in Dublin, please someone put an embargo on Paddy Casey leaving Ireland.......that guy was terrible!

    I saw a Newcastle band called The Sound Explosion supporing someone in Sheffield. They were brilliant. Shame noone's ever heard of them! But I bought their album on the night and very impressed!

    They're one of those bands you either love or hate....an acquired taste.
