    B.o.B and fun. were announced as support for the UK tour by Hayley [first via PFC]. Then, both artists [Bobby Ray and fun.] posted their tour dates a few days later, and Dublin [and the Scotland date, I think] was not included in either.

    I still bought the fun. album, I really like them. They're just up beat and stuff.

    On the PFC, someone called them [Jody Has a Hitlist] Jody Has a Sh**list... I am not a big fan. I wouldn't mind them supporting, but I wouldn't like them to support. I am hoping someone like Young Guns or YMAS or The Blackout would open. They all are on tour around that time, so they could use the show as a warm up...?

    Plus, I think B.o.B and fun. aren't supporting for financial reasons... And they aren't doing the Scottish date either, I think so it makes sense in a financial way...

    :'(
    VersaEmerge or All Time Low would be my dream support acts but it seems unlikely.
    And their album is totally worth the wait btw :)

    Have two tickets for this gig, will hopefully be going with my girlfriend. :D

    Tickets aren't selling that well at all this time round! I think it's because there's no new album or no film (*cough*, Twi****e) to publicise them this time 'round. I'm not complaining though, that means it's more likely that it will be just hardcore Paramore fans like me there! :)

    B.o.B for support, really? I'm all for diversity and what not, but he doesn't really appeal to me that much. If only they landed Jay-Z.. (dream on John, dream on..).

    It's going to be hard for them to top having YMAS as support though (like back in December, that was an awesome night!)

    EDIT:
    Just checked out MCD.ie, here's the article that confirms B.o.B as support!

    As long as he can get the crowd going, I won't mind the fact that a lot of his songs are very mediocre. If he creates a good atmosphere, I'll just join in the fun and enjoy myself!

    Cannot wait for this gig now, just 13 days away! =D

    I was so excited for Paramore that I got my ticket right away and then it turned out that none of my friends could go. I still wanna go and all but I don't know about going solo :L

    From experience, the Paramore crowd is usually pretty friendly so just make friends with the people around you and you'll be grand. :)

    For sure they are. I remember well the last time they played the 02.

    Great crowd energetic crowd. Could not believe kids where camping out over night to be first in line though. Sooooo much pain for nothing.

    Looking forward to this. Always a good from them

    I stood on my own at Lady Gaga, it was grand. No bother at all. I'd say go.

    I am going to this gig but am not looking forward to it at all. They were terrible in Marley Park and I found their fans to be quite irritating both times I have seen Paramore. Bob supporting just shows how mainstream and pop Paramore have become. Last year You Me At Six made the show, shame theres no good rock band supporting.

    I heard mixed reactions about that performance, but I wasn't there (unfortunately) so I can't give you an honest opinion of what I thought. All the people who said it was great were die hard Parawhore's, and all the people who told me it was shiote were part of the "We hate Paramore" group of people. I haven't actually gotten any unbiased feedback from their performance from any of my friends/acquaintances.

    However, that night, after they played, Hayley saw a Twitter message from me to her about how I was upset that I couldn't make it, and she replied. Made my night, last day of the J.C. and all. =)

    Really? I always thought Paramore fans were a kind and energetic bunch of people. Sure, it's 90% peppy teens, and if you're not one yourself (I still am, especially at a Paramore gig) I can see how it might be very slightly irritating, but I mean, nothing ground breaking that would hinder your fun at the concert. Just go with it, and enjoy yourself.

    If you mean they were ignorant/mean, that really is the first I've heard of that. Any time I go to Paramore I've been able to make new friends and interact with everyone around me and they were all very friendly..

    I don't think B.o.B supporting means that they have become pop.. Mainstream, maybe, but that's only because they've gained many fans recently and have become more popular worldwide. I doubt this will effect their music too much, but we won't know for certain until we hear the next album, eh?

    My advice, StaticAge, is to go into the concert with an open mind. If you go in thinking 'this is gonna be ****e', you'll probably think it is, but if you go in thinking 'well, it could be good', you might just have a good night. And if Paramore aren't awesome, I will eat my hat. :)
