    It's not the 80's and we're talking about U2? :shock:

    :lol::lol::lol:

    anyway why do we need a support?? I'd rather give it a miss totally and have a slightly longer set from the main men

    Sonic Youth are in Europe this summer. My Morning Jacket hasn't announced any new shows. Chris Cornell (haha) is in Europe in june at least.

    But I don't think it'll be a band I'm familiar with :)

    Gaslight anthem would be great.
    Also, I'd love to see The Airborn Toxic Event.

    The Gaslight Anthem...absolutely one of the most boring shows I have seen this year.
    Good album, but very, VERY boring show.

    I hate U2.
    (yes, I just bitch about them!)
    I absolutely love 4 songs from them though. But I just hate them, and all the stories I have heard about them from a friend who worked for them for 10 years.

    My dream support act would be Mudhoney.
    Then the guys can get togther and play some Green River tunes as well!

    I would be ecstatic if it was The Gaslight Anthem. Since discovering them earlier this year their two records have been on heavy rotation on my ipod.

    Smart money must be on Idlewild again though. Like someone else said, their new record is due soon and PJ are fond of them.

    I wouldn't mind if it was Ted Leo & The Pharmacists again....they were good fun on the US shows last year.

    What are the odds, they're playing in Dublin this Sunday (3rd May) in The Academy! €15, not bad.

    I think the Gaslight Anthem would be cool to see (if I was going)...I've heard a cover they do of 'State of Love and Trust' and it was pretty good. They are obviously fans of PJ and I think the band would (or does) dig their sound.

    My guess is that it won't be anyone big! This is basically a warm up for the US dates. I think we will hear some experimentation and some new songs

    It would be nice though if they had a local band at each gig.....
