Legend_DIT · 09-02-2005 3:42pm

Where'd you hear The Killers are supporting?

King Of Leons are apparently also supporting.... or so NME says.

comet · 10-02-2005 2:55pm

Kings of Leon supporting in the states only.
Snow Patrol must be playing Glastonbury on the Saturday thats why they won't be in Dublin.

What are Snow Patrol like live??I doubt the Killers will be playing when they are playing Oxegen.What about someone like the Frames or Paddy Casey who are normally brillant live!

CountryWise · 10-02-2005 3:16pm

The killers,snow patrol and u2 well that would just be class!i think the frames are cool but i think we have seen them enough - dont get me wrong they are brilliant live but they are always playing somewhere or other so something different needed

lad12 · 10-02-2005 3:24pm

Yeah but have the killers been confirmed for the gig.Like to see them live.

spartacus93 · 10-02-2005 7:24pm

They mention the Killers on www.u2.com but not confirmed about them yet.

It's lookin like just Snow Patrol for the first Dublin date. The Killers are supporting them at other venues.

I actually heard something about Paddy Casey being there. I wouldn't put any money on it yet though.

My mate met Paddy in Virgin two weeks ago and said he was supporting them at Croker. Paddy could have been ripping the piss but I doubt it. My guess for the support lineup on Friday at least:

Paddy Casey
Snow Patrol

A friend of a friend is in Paddys band and he said the same, so they were hardly both takin' the piss. Thanks for the info!

idontknowmyname · 12-02-2005 4:21pm

its true

and the band are still in talks to have The Killers support them in the UK

comet · 14-02-2005 10:58am

no surprise, it would probably be easier at this stage to list any events that paddy casey is not showing up to, he's good but talk about overkill on the irish touring!

Snow Patrol to supprt U2???
