Unfortunately, it is not possible to get what you want with Bacula.  You might 
be able to write a custom script by looking at the database, but there will 
be a few complications to get it right.

There is currently a command:

  list nextvolume job="Job-name"

which will list out what Bacula thinks the next volume will be provided the 
job is scheduled today or tomorrow.  However, it does not properly handle job 
level overrides or storage overrides, and of course, this would not in any 
case, tell you on Friday, what tape is needed for Monday ...
