    How about no opener and an extra hour of PJ. That's what I'm hoping for, but if not......................

    The Gaslight Anthem!!!!!

    Gogol Bordello and Rodrigo y Gabriela would both be great.

    I like me some MMJ, but I think I want that the most pretty much because it means it'll be great watching how tortured Sandra's face is after all that queueing, just to be trapped at front row to see MMJ :)

    Fair enough :) The first 3 though would be preferential. Me 1st & Gimmes would be amazing, i watched them before the PJ Hurricane 07 set, and it was so much fun. what a band!

    I'd take Damo or Mogwai over Paddy Casey/Ted Leo & Pharmacists-esque openers anyday though! have you seen Mogwai live? wouldnt put you to sleep!! "Mood building" shall we say.... 8-)

    I didn't even watch Ted Leo! And aren't Mogwai gone kaput? I did get to see The Futureheads three times *joy*

    The show in Nijmegen suited me perfectly. Kings of Leon were a bit useless, but Incubus before PJ was just ideal - especially in such a setting as Goeffert Park.
    three times???? :shock: nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... they seem like nice guys and all BUT seriously! They played the one song over and over again in Copenhagen :oops:

    I agree, incubus were great and a very fitting support act.

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    No doubt it'll be some semi obscure boring 'punk' act that'll bore us to tears..thats been the MO the last few tours..boooring..
  • JordyWordyJordyWordy Posts: 2,261
    come to think of it, the order of bands i saw at PJs day at Hurricane 07 (not all on same stage, but still) was pretty awesome. so any of them would be great! my day went like this:

    Pearl Jam
    Me First & The Gimme Gimmes
    Sonic Youth
    Kings Of Leon
    Porcupine Tree
    Juliette & The Licks (actually were great banter live - i went to them expecting them to be CRAP)
    Isis
    Howling Bells

    QOTSA, Explosions In The Sky, Gutter Twins, Dr. Dog are other ones id be happy with!

    Not sure if they'd be a good PJ support band but Juliette & The Licks are a bit of fun live. Juliette Lewis stood on my shoulders at Lollapalooza when she stagedived into the crowd. I've got a cool photo of it somewhere, my camera was in my left hand and Juliette's leg is in my right hand!

    I think the fratellis are great... nothing wrong with em at all.

    I agree... I think they've got some good songs to bop along too... nothing too complex but quite enjoyable :D

    Calum obviously thinks 'THEY'RE utter shit' though... that's his opinion and he's entitled to it :)
