Even guesting outside of Sweden sounds like it's quite unlikely. Definitely nothing stateside.
Opening act?

Not so fast there, Coachella lineup just came out and she is playing it, so she is fair game again...

I was surprised to see that. She just cancelled the Laneway festival and it wouldn't 100% surprise me if Coachella was cancelled for her since it's happened in the past years where acts drop off within 48 hours.

But, the gigs she canceled are this month while Coachella is in April so it's probably the kind of thing where she just needs to take it easy for a couple of months.

"unfortunately tour life has caught up with me and it's been recommended that I take [a] break. I'm devastated but I know I will return."
Does this 48 hour old quote from her sound like someone knowing they have plans for shows in LA and with U2?
IMO, Coachella had a months contract with her and put her on the poster as a bluff to see if she would cancel or not.

Sounds like her cancelling is pretty Lykke Li.
I'll show myself out, thanks.

They are from your backyard! Nice to see some hometown support!
Yeah, it's nice when one of your favorite bands in from where you live. I have seen Manchester Orchestra about 15 times the last 7 or 8 years. They play 2-3 shows every year in Atlanta. Love to see them get the exposure of playing with U2.

U2 should kick it old school with Simple Minds (still a great live band!)

I never even entertained the thought of killing myself at a U2 concert. That would certainly push me over the Edge.
Pun not necessarily intended but leaving it in for the sake of it.

Just a side note , that this particular festival in performance at Torhout-Werchter. Is by far their best ever.
They played new gold dream together with them as a but but their own set was killing it. Better quality audio and video is available on youtube.
But thanks from bringing this up. I always enjoy watching this, time and time again.

Would love Future Islands to support them on the European dates.

Neutral Milk Hotel? No? Ok, let's be considerate for the Edge

Maybe announcing some decent opening acts would help ticket sales.
Maybe no self respecting bands will tour with U2 now because they're so mad about them giving away their album.
I'd love to see Noel Gallagher open!! I actually don't know many current bands. Broken Bells would be a good choice.

Back in the day my two favourite bands were U2 & Simple Minds, so I'd be up for that.
Yeah, it would be great to see them play New Gold Dream together again. If you get a moment, Simple Minds have got their mojo back. Check out their album "Big Music," plus they are still great live...

I'd like to see Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds. Their new album comes out early March so they will want to support it. Gaslight Anthem would be a great choice IMO as well. Oh, and Spoon too.
What's Flock of Seagulls up to?

Can strike Noel Gallagher as a possibility for at least the early part of the N. American tour (and the last part probably too since he's playing NYC twice already in May and June), as he announced N. American dates for May through early June.
I'm still holding out for no opening act.
Seems strange that they haven't announced anyone as of yet. Can't remember if this was a common thing on previous tours or not

I feel like Interpol can open. I mean, Bono likes them, right??
