Smile UK Support on tour.

Hi does any one know who the support band/artist is going to be when they get to the UK ? We are new on here so may have missed it. Thanks

I'd assume its Razorlight, as they're supporting in Dublin.

Surely Razorlight are too big in their own right, to support Bon Jovi?
They certainly sell more albums.

As long as it's not Big N Rich, I don't care!

They're trying to tap into the housewives.

He may have meant mainland europe for Big N Rich...thank god.

As for Razorlight, it may not be a question of how big Razorlight are/think they are (well, they aint no Stadium band thats for sure) its all just marketing and trying to branch out into different markets and play to different audiences. Razorlight played a few shows with U2 last tour, as did several other big name british acts such as Snow Patrol, Keane, Feeder etc, who are all big in their own right and have headlined huge festivals. (Razorlight have actually headlined Punchestown oxygen festival).

I'm happy if its Razorlight at Twickers aswell as Dublin.

They are equally as big in Ireland, hence them headlining the festivals over here (which are, act by act, identical to the english festivals) so theres still no reason.
