The Thrills to support U2

The Thrills have announced that they will be opening for U2 for the first month of the third leg of the Vertigo Tour. According to oneloudernyc.com, the young Irish band announced their U2 support commitments on their official web site, but later removed the information. (No thumbs up to spill the beans, apparently.) Among the dates that were posted are the four shows in Toronto.

  7. Well, now Dashboard Confessional says they are opening those dates (see dashboardconfessional.com). I’m confused…will *U2* announce their openers already?
