    METZ!!!! They'd be amazing. Perfect band to warm up the crowd for a night of kick-ass, loud music.


    Yusssss! This would rule. The Men would be great, too. Cloud Nothings, maybe?

    I'd prefer if Gaslight Anthem didn't support them on tour but it seems likely.

    Dredg would be amazing to see, 2nd fav band.

    Not very well known, you should check out their album Catch Without Arms. Hell, if you give it a good listen and don't like it i'll send you a pj poster.
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    A lot of good bands listed here, and even better... a good handful that I've never heard of. I have some research to do. The kind of research I like at that!

    AWOLNATION, Imagine Dragons, or Silversun Pickups in that order. Gaslight Anthem fucking sucks so goddamned bad. Well unless you like retreads of Spin the Black Circle.

    Love Nine Inch Nail's opening band, Explosions in the Sky. It would be awesome if PJ grabbed a trippy instrumental band like that. And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead is sweet too. Or get STS9, My Morning Jacket, something for the hippies.
