    If we are going out of the box (and in some cases reality) how about Soundgarden with Brandi Carlile singing? 
    Um, yes, please!

    I'm basically waiting to find out whether I will have ended up paying 270 bucks per night for two Pearl Jam shows or 180 bucks per night for two Pearl Jam shows and a to-be-determined third show. Since these are sunk costs, I'm not sure whether I'm rooting for a new headliner that I want to see or a night off since I'll be driving down and back each night from L.A.
    Same boat.

    Santana puts on an amazing show and I'd imagine he would cater to NY crowd.  He would have to cancel his 9/28 Vegas show, but it looks like a residancy so prob should be ok.

    Counting Crows maybe, but they are in Maryland on 9/27.  If they could swing it, would be decent.
    I’ve never read as many negative reviews of a live act then I have with Counting Crows. 
    Thanks for the heads up on Counting Crows.  I've never seen them before, and definitely won't be seeing them in the future.

    Santana however I do vouch for.  If you ever have the chance to see him, I highly recommend it.  He's great live.
    I’ve seen Counting Crows probably 7 or 8 times since August and Everything After, in a variety of different venues (small-ish club in the early 90s to Sydney Opera House). 

    I get that Adam isn’t for everyone but I’ve really enjoyed it every time (but I’ve taken enough shit on here over the years for saying that.)

    Friend went to one of their shows last year, said he'd never seen a band go through the motions like that before

    I’ve only seen Counting Crows once. Adam didn’t seem into it at first but at some point he flipped a switch and it was fantastic after that. So…they could be awesome, ha

    What is the deal with John F and breaking bread? 
    There are unresolved issues between John F. & Josh K. Josh was unceremoniously let go from the Peppers because John F. wanted to come back after a jam session with Flea. 

    Chad Smith remains cool with everyone, and Flea has had nothing but good things to say about Josh, albeit with some regret. Anthony has been tight-lipped on the whole thing, as has John F.

    Josh has been doing his own thing, but has landed firmly as a touring member of PJ. He's proved himself 10 times over (with Ed & the Earthlings, and PJ), and the band is not going to do anything to make him uncomfortable, or be in a tough spot.

    Booking or asking RHCP for Ohana (or any joint PJ venture) would do just that.

    So, until more time has passed, or there's been some sort of summit (I tried shortening it with the aforementioned "breaking bread"), the 2 bands as their respective wholes remain quite separate. 
    And apparently John was pissed that Josh took the job with RHCP, they haven't spoken since.

    I'll be interested to see who they announce, but please not Counting Crows.  I like their hits well enough, but took a flyer on them live last year and they were legitimately one of the worst live shows I've ever seen.  Adam talks through his songs, doesn't sing them, and frankly, that means the hits don't translate live.  Look up recent versions of "Mr. Jones" live on youtube.  You'll be disappointed.  Booking a band like them to replace a band live NYCH would make the loss of NYCH all the worse.

    I think the question should be is this just going to be a reshuffling of the lineup or are they going to replace Neil with a Neil-level act?

    Just reshuffling would still leave a top act missing. Switching acts among nights would be problematic for people who did not buy all 3 nights, and may then not have a ticket for the artist they wanted to see.

    Changing my wishlist up with some of these suggestions:

    - Brandi Carlile
    - Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit
    - Miley Cyrus & the Backyard Sessions Band (they've covered "Just Breathe", go check it out)
    - Chris Stapleton
    - Maggie Rogers
    - The Avett Brothers
    - John Fogerty & the Fogerty Family Band

    To all the right people: make some phone calls!
    Haven't heard any viable options beyond these, TBH.

    Jack White. 
    Just curious why he's not on that list.

    I doubt they reshuffle too much if at all. Doing so doesn't resolve the main issue--you still need a Saturday headliner--and threatens ticking off people who had made plans to see certain acts on Friday or Sunday. I'm only going to the last day (family commitments keep me away days 1 and 2), obviously for PJ above all, but would be really bummed to lose Alanis (or the Breeders or the Idles or Kim Gordon). And I doubt giving one of those to Saturday folks geared up NYCH moves the needle much.

    Agreed, I don't think re-shuffling is the move.  I'm going day 1 and 3, and wouldn't want to lose Garbage or Alanis.  I've seen Alanis live before and she is great.  I'm excited to see Garbage for the first time.

    I love Jack/The White Stripes. Like, a lot😅but other than the fact he did it 2 yrs ago, Sat. already has a country vibe.

    Jack's sound is rooted in the blues. It's just not in the cards.

    Jackson Browne is a California guy, isn't touring much this year, may have some crossover appeal with Neil, and played a great aging rockstar show when we saw him last year. This is just throwing something against the wall, but Ohana could do a lot worse.

    Willie Nelson is back in play, btw. He just played a show the other day.

    Currently listening to his cover of 'Picture in a Frame'😌
