U2 tour features great opening bands

U2 is going on a massive tour in support of their latest album, Vertigo. While typically that would not be newsworthy it should be noted that Kings of Leon will be opening up on the first leg of the tour, and the likes of Snow Patrol, Keane, The Killers, and Franz Ferdinand will be opening up various dates on the second leg. The third leg support act hasn't been announced yet but it's likely to be somewhat enjoyable.
