    AFAIK they're only supporting them out in Europe, i may be wrong, though.

    Its not fair that the Saturday people are getting a concert thats 1 & 1/4 hours shorter than the other nights for the same price (+ a worse opening act)

    The reason he is supporting is due to the fact that he is managed by Principle Managment just like PJ Harvey and U2 are. PJ Harvey supported U2 on the Elevation tour in America. I do think that the rest of Europe and America got better supports than us though. Kings of Leon are great and Doves are pretty good live too.

    Kings of Leon are supporting the Pixies later on in the Summer so that is one reason why they are not doing U2 aswell.

    About the beer, I'm presuming/hoping they will be selling pints in the ground....even though they will probably be €5 a pop

    I hope it's Glen Hansard. That'd really pi$$ Aberdonian Stu off.

    I've never even heard of them!
    Can't say that I'm too bothered though, it's U2 that I'm going to see.
