Support acts for the tour??

[namkcuR]

Lykke Li is an obvious choice - she's great in her own right, and it would be awesome if she joined the band for The Troubles.

 

[digitize]

Bastille
The Gaslight Anthem
Bleachers
Chvrches
Hozier (I only know that one song, but you know he's Irish...)

Any of these would be fantastic.

I believe it's 30 seconds to mars that has a new song that sounds just like streets. First time I heard it on the radio, I thought it was streets.

Not them, it's Walk the Moon, who could make a good U2 opener.

I'd love to see Two Door Cinema Club open for them. ALL IRISH BOYS, ALL THE TIME!!

Love to see them open, but not sure if they will be touring next year.

Wonder if we'll see Cage the Elephant in Europe since Edge has been talking them up.

In the US, I'd love to see Lykke Li, St Vincent (she'd blow U2 fans minds in a great way) or Editors (will never happen but a girl can dream).

I actually like 30 seconds to mars, apparently they're not too welcome in here?

They sound pretty u2ish to me -not talking about quality, just about style.

Noel would be great.
Interpol? aren't they big enough to play on their own?
I know and like two door cinema club.
Don't know many of the other bands mentioned in this thread.
Lykke Li would be great just for The Troubles.

Neutral Milk Hotel at Edge's request?

I'd like to see Two Door Cinema Club, Bastille, Keane, Spoon or Lykke Li, to name a few. Definitely wouldn't mind if I got Florence again, she was great.

Can't stand Jared Leto's screaming.

Noel's band would make a good US opener since they aren't as well known here. Can't see Interpol opening again.

Can't stand Jared Leto's screaming.

Fair enough.

I happen to enjoy screaming singers (i.e. roger waters >>> gilmour)

St. Vincent
The New Pornographers
TV On The Radio

Justin Beiber actually how about Future Islands...Bono like them.

 

[Rachel D.]

I'm the support. It'll be great. I'll just read out Interference threads to some taped backing music.

I'm sure it would be better than the Black Eyed Peas!

I really don't care who they get, since I will most likely have earplugs in so that I don't go deaf before U2 plays. (Thanks a lot, The Fray.)

 

[domo-kun]

Can't stand Jared Leto.

Fixed that for us both.

 

[An Cat Gav]

Iamamiwhoami have a new album out on Monday, I doubt they'd be chosen but they would be incredible.

I'm assuming to continue the tradition us Aussies will get Drake? Nikki Minaj? After Kanye (Vertigo) and Jay Z (360) I guess the rap tradition is set in stone now
