So Brandon Flowers just announced his solo album release for May 18 - kinda good timing to be an opener, and the only Killers show commitment during the N. American leg is Firefly, which doesn't conflict with U2 dates.
Or Elbow would be epic too!
Ok, it's only a feeling, maybe a wish, because they are a brilliant live act, but I think it would fit perfect if the UK band JAMES would open the European U2 shows!
Especially if Elbow shattered into a million pieces.
So you're saying there IS a chance....... did someone mention Elbow????
They just wrapped up their tour for their last album, and it sounds like Guy Garvey is polishing off a solo album for later this year. So ... they're kind of available? I guess? #nottheirmanager
Imagine Dragons and Bastille because I want proof that they're not the same band.
I am hoping for the Soundgarden. Or Pearl Jam. Whoever good from 90s
I saw bastille open for muse aswell. I didnt think they were that bad to be honest. Saw better but saw alot worse.
But yeah i wouldnt want to see them open for u2
Why has this not been announced yet? Theres only 9 weeks until the tour starts
For the insane cost of tickets this tour there had better be opening acts. I can't imagine paying $70 to see U2 in 2009 and have bands like Snow Patrol and Muse open for them and then pay $300 this time around and have nobody open.
You gotta think the opening acts will be announced any day now, no?
I'd happily pay more to see a longer (?) U2 show, rather than wait through an opening band I might not care about.
If U2 come out and be their own opening act and play a 45 minute acoustic set, and play a full on 2 hour U2 show after, I'd be a happy camper. I'd even be inclined to buy tickets to more shows!
