I can't make any of the shows, due to work conflicts and so forth.  At this 
point, we know for sure that 
Robert Fripp will be doing soundscapes to open the California shows.  There are 
now rumors going 
about (from MTV) that Adrian Belew will open "on the East Coast", which may or 
may not include any 
of the Midwest (I mean, Adrian spends enough time in Ohio that he SHOULD play 
Cleveland...).  
Adrian is on the PT album, so it's plausible.  It's not clear whether he would 
be with his new Trio 
(recruited to tour with the Side One material, not Danny and Les).  That may 
make a difference as to 
what shows to fly to.  

Now, if you were really lucky, going by other guests on the Deadwing album, 
Opeth would open in 
the Midwest.  It seems unlikely though.  You'll get a chance to here Opeth live 
in Atlanta this summer 
as part of the Sounds of the Underground (though you'll have to go to Hi Fi 
Buys Amphitheater and 
wade through a lot of emocore-loving poser teenagers).
