[U2Fanatic4ever]

for me to know and u to find out..

 

[Pop Artist]

Please tell me you are kidding.

I would not call the Police shite at all, but when I went to see the Police and Muse just three days apart in 2007, Muse put on the far more dynamic and enjoyable show.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

MAN.. people here are wayyyyyyyyyyy too serious..

I am funnin.. but seriously I agree on the dynamic and more enjoyable.. Muse definitely does well there.

Any guesses for Dublin3?

 

[popbellydancer]

you wouldn't happen to have any photos of this show that pan to the left a little, do you? That's where I was.

or the right where i was?!

 

[brkngrrl]

Is Muse opening for the second Giants Stadium show also?

 

[last unicorn]

I LOVE Snow Patrol. I've seen them 4-5 times. I agree about their newest--it's okay.
Overall, they've got a pretty good mix of fast/slow songs. I can't wait for a stadium full of people singing the end to Run...

Light up, light up
As if you had a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear

Learn the lyrics people. This is your job until September.

I thought this was a Leona Lewis song


Btw, I take Muse over boring Police every day

 

[gvox]

I have two words:

BLOC PARTY

Opening acts this tour (for the most part)

Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised

 

[Axver]

Any guesses for Dublin3?

Me. I'll be reciting setlist statistics while some random bloke from the crowd strums People Get Ready. It'll be like a 1987 U2 gig!

Is Muse opening for the second Giants Stadium show also?

Yep.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

Is Muse opening for the second Giants Stadium show also?

I hate to sound redundant if this has already been answered, but I heard Muse is opening in Tampa - Have there been any official confirmations of this? If so, I missed it!

ETA: Never mind! Didn't realize I could refer to Live Nation.

 

[bombergirl1978]

Any news on Charlottesville, VA?

ETA: NM Just checked livenation and Muse is listed as the opening act!!!!!!!!! I'm very happy That would be the best opener I've seen for U2 yet!

I saw the promotion for the concert in Atlanta last night on TV. They said Muse will be opening up for U2 here.

 

[Achtung_CJ]

MUSE!!! YES!!!!
I love Muse. And I shall be going to that Charlottesville show.
And if the Raleigh show exists I figure they'll be opening there too, to follow the trend I suppose. Ahahaha, I'm even more excited now!

Wow... you're so lucky!!!
Muse is great!

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

Wow... you're so lucky!!!

i know! I feel so lucky you have no idea. I have been over the moon about this ever since they announced the NY show as the first of a few that they would be supporting U2. They are in my top 3 favs of all time right behind U2. Seriously, it's like I died and went to heaven or something with this kind of lineup.. x infinity! Last time I saw Muse live was in 2007 in VA so I have been dying to see them again live, they literally blew my mind.
