You don't know who Athlete is? Who doesn't know who Athlete is?? EVERYONE knows who Athlete is!


No idea.



I don't know how likely it is that Oasis will open either - I think if they did, it would be more of an unspoken double-headliner instead of a weenie "opening act" though. Wouldn't it be killer to see The Boss and Bono play together instead??

'The Boss' is an old fart, who is old and fartish. Go back to Philly, Brucie!

I wish I could see The Killers open for them. I'm currently obsessed with them.
The Boss would be pretty cool. Ellie's opinion is invalid based on the fact that she also thinks Bono is old and fartish.

I didn't much prefer his voice while harmonizing with Bono at the induction to Still Haven't Found... but they both have charisma and chemistry together.

I don't wanna see any mano-on-mano action THERE though.

Psst...did you see the part where #1 called you an invalid?

The Killers would be awesome. Is there any buzz that that might happen? Oh my god, if The Killers or Franz opened for U2... *thud*

Dunno about The Killer or Franz Ferdinand (though both are opening for some cities in Europe). All I've heard being speculated are Oasis for MSG and Keane in Toronto.

Probably not...I'm wondering if (whoever it ends up being) it'll be one group straight through like the first leg or a variety like the second???

Pssst...Tiff, did you see the part where we called you incontinent?

How about a supergroup of Jake Shears, Brandon Flowers, Alex Whatsisnamepros from FF, Celine Dion, and Liam Gallagher for the opening act?

Or they could always break with tradition and send a comedy out. Like Tiff - the place would be in knots!

To throw another name in there, hasn't Switchfoot been rumored to open?

ETA: Ellie, that's quite a combo. Interesting to think about!

I am quite funny, aren't I?

And never, EVER utter Jake Shears and That Wretched Non-Canadian in the same sentence!!

Keane's a poorboy's Coldplay. He'd put the audience to sleep.

Being the sad saddo that I am, I had a quick goggle at the Athlete album sampler on Amazon. If Keane are the poor man's Coldplay, then Athlete are the poor man's Keane.

Is that a repeat, Tiff? I feel like I saw them semi-recently on SNL.

Yeah, probably. nbc.com dosen't list it as "All-New", so yeah.

Ellie, you "Yale student"..."Celine Dion Jake Shears Celine Shears Jake Dion" is not a sentence.

Her parents bought her way in there, and she did favours to the admissions committee. If it isn't evident already, she's not exactly the brightest Crayola in the box.

Just for posterity's sake. Are you going to blame exhaustion on your lack of wit again tonight?
