I don't really listen to the radio either but I mentioned that song since I heard it a bunch of times while I was out...getting a haircut...at the store...in the bookstore...watching CSI...wherever I went, for a while
To answer you question Jennie, that announcement was posted in TPT boards by the head admins. That's the only show mentioned so far for them but I hope you get a chance to see them open for the Police
It's funny how Depends keep coming up in concert contexts--there's like a 9 pg. thread at inforoo (and even mention of catheter systems, lmao)--I think people may be wearing down to the idea.....giggles
As for opening bands, I will stay and watch no matter what and I will be in the best mood so will be the most receptive audience member to whatever...this is what I have been waiting for!
The reason I will always stay for the opening act: I remember the time that I went to see "The Other Ones" and Ziggy Marley opened for them...the audience was virtually empty when he started...so much so that the music for Ziggy's set reverberated off the empty hard seats creating a sort of strange echo effect...most people were still outside in the lot, partying or what have you…people started filing in most way through the set...and it was really loud, the entrance en masse…Personally, I was like wtf...first of all, this is Ziggy F'in Marley...doing the toughest set, beautiful "Redemption Song,"...but that’s just me, I <3 Ziggy Marley ever since I heard "Tomorrow People"…but even if I didn't go to that show to actually see both acts I decided that even if I didn't like opening act, my rear will stay planted in seat for the whole show...at least until the necessary trip becomes unavoidable...and that's tough for me, I have to drink like 2 gal. of water a day...so back to Depends idea /giggle
