Idlewild just added for man 2 an london 2

 

[KUEFC09U2]

Idlewild just added for man 2 an london 2

so if man 2 got a second support, am pretty sure man 1 will

 

[Vertigo Fly]

Seems that The Bravery will be the second support on the Man 1. Was on their official website last time I checked.

 

[KUEFC09U2]

yep you are indeed correct, just checked the braverys offcial site, and they are down as supporting U2

 

[u2ann69]

still says only one for Glasgow which is a shame as wouldnt mind seeing any of the other European supports along side Interpol.

 

[shawn_sheep]

what time are the doors opening at mancghester/london?

 

[reggiethedawg]

There are some class support acts on this leg. I can't wait to see The Killers and The Bravery (whose Fearless promo video has gotta be one of the coolest videos ever). Only wish Kaiser Chiefs were doing a UK gig, I think they are incredible, they are gonna be so big!

 

[lemon_vr6]

Who is opening the 3rd Dublin show?

We're getting Paddy Casey / Snow Patrol for the first one and The Radiators for the second, but what about #3?

 

[mossiedundun]

Ash are the main support .I read it on hotpress magazine website.No news of anyone else.

 

[Boozyuzi]

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Interpol are supporting U2 at Hampden.

 

[Jimali]

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club? That's a new one on me...........where are they from and what style of music do they play? Anyone know?

I suppose I could just do a google...............

 

[YBORCITY]

Does anyone know who will be opening for them on the 3rd Leg of the tour?

 

[Neilz]

You don't know the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club?

This is the band of Zak Wylde (former guitarist of Ozzy Osbourne)!

Probably the best support act combo this tour!

BRMC + Interpol

Obviously not! But I guess I'll find out if they're any good on the 21st....

I knew I saw it somewhere.Here ya go.

 

[bono_gal]

THE KILLERS, CARDIFF, SERIOUSLY!!!!! omg, two of my favourite bands under one roof!! So lucky to be going to that concert!!

Anyone know of another support act that night, i heard REM possibly? I think I'd faint if they were there too!

No chance. REM are headlining at the very same venue a few weeks later. We got lucky with The Killers though.

Er, no it's not - Zak Wylde's band is Black Label Society.

BRMC are also an American guitar based band - not quite as popular as they might have been.

 

[Chizip]

i just hope at some point we get to see the slip nuts

This was in the band's latest newsletter.

OPENING FOR U2:

The Bravery have been asked to support U2:
Tue June 14 - Manchester - City of Manchester Stadium
Mon June 27 - Dublin - Croke Park

 

[1stepcloser]

can't wait to see the bravery and snow patrol at manchester on the 14th. should be awesome!

i would have loved to have seen the kings of leon though

Ah well, The Killers are still amazing!!!

 

[YBORCITY]

Any thoughts on who may be opening in the States in the Fall?

 

[corner]

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Interpol are supporting U2 at Hampden.

Fu*kin A!!!!! I just looked up the BRMC website and it's official! Respect in the house for you Boozy. Maybe someone should inform U2.con of the update before the gig passes them by.

 

[zwervers2]

Saw the boys in Amsterdam 2 years ago and they are Fanfuckingtastic. Seriously top 10 concerts I have ever seen and that says a lot.
