So I can't find much info on if/who will open for Pearl Jam next Friday at Consol. Looks like a few openers have been announced for pacific NW and the south, and they are using local but established acts (Mudhoney in Portland and Midlake in Texas area). Some rumors Gaslight Anthem will open for east coast dates (they have a new record out, they use same producer as PJ, and Vedder and Fallon are buds, and GA's schedule appears open until Voodoo Festival - where PJ is also on the bill). But just weird that they haven't announced anything yet. I wouldn't be surprised if there were no openers for some dates (afterall, PJs sets are usually 2.5-3 hrs usually anyway). I've been lucky enough to catch some quality opening acts for them in the past - My Morning Jacket in 2006 probably the best. Band of Horses opened in 2010 tour. I'm gettin' kind of pumped for 10/11......
