    Not really the crowd here to get you support on this one. I enjoy GVF, but a lot of people do not.
    I think a lot of minds would be changed if they heard them live.  Mine was.  Their newest album is amazing and not nearly as Zeppeliny as the earlier stuff.
    I thought studio stuff was okay at first.  Then I heard them live and realized they are close to the worst band on the planet. 

    So it goes the other way for a lot of people
    Interesting.  Fair enough.  Just saw them last year.  Maybe they've improved.  Been to hundreds of shows and they sounded amazing live.

    If those were shows I was going to, I'd be stoked to see them, but it's scary how polarizing the band is.   People either love them or loathe them.  It's like young nickelback.

    As has been mentioned already, a band that is headlining a venue is not going to open for another band at the same venue the day before their gig.  They just aren’t.

    That would be great unfortunately I don't see it happening. I will be there on Sun night after the 2 PJ shows and maybe in Chicago between the 2 PJ shows.

    Plus that may not be enough time to get their costumes dry cleaned

    People seem to have some strong opinions about this band. Me personally, I don't like them and wouldn't go see them play, but different strokes for different folks as they say.

    I’m not a fan of Greta Van Fleet but there is no way they are opening and then headling their own show at same venue.

    There is a much better chance that their singer joins Pearl Jam as a surprise guest to sing SuperBloodWolfMoon or something like that but I hope that doesn’t happen

    If GVF was a dog, what dog would they be?

    Probably a little yappy dog. Led Zeppelin would be something like a German Shepherd that can be both friendly and fierce, but GVF is a Chihuahua.

    Soul Asylum would be the people's choice.  

    80's and 90's MPLS legends.  Dave is still the singer and they still release music and tour.  

    (And along with Taylor Swift and the 1975 they were one of the hardest records to get during RSD lol)

    Music holds up, too.
