Don’t think the manic street preachers will be getting paid much to be the support act that day.
I managed to get tickets to the Killers at Riverside. Can not wait, they have been on our list to see for years. I love the Manics but last time I saw them they were very anti-English.

Who's booked to see him after he has met Colette? I've heard she's his supporting act that night!

His face will be covered in my lip gloss by the time he gets in stage (if he escapes)

This is how the likes of Ed Sheeran and Peter Kaye make mega, mega bucks- costs are also low as well as insanely popular of course. Will be cheaper for one off gigs with no touring. The only one I have seen in the past few years with a support act has been Steps who had Vengaboys- don't ask. It was actually more entertaining than I could ever have imagined.
Ed Sheeran always has a support act, as did Peter Kay when I went to see him. (Bizarrely it was rick astley)

Not sure why they would be extra costs for the rigs given they play on the same stage either...

I wanted to book somewhere for food before his O2 gigs and I rang them to ask when on. They said don't know. Un helpful frankly. Probs just fed up of being.asked.

Interested to know what time he normally comes on. Then I'll give him an extra 20 mins or so as he will have to hurdle Colette to get out of his dressing-gown !

Maybe one of the O2 restaurants will know? They sometimes have the timings? I’m going to superglue myself to his dressing room door

You will witness him walking on stage dragging Colette along the floor with her hands gripped to his ankles .

With regards to support acts. There are many times where the record company will pay to have a support act on a tour. Supporting big names gives allows the musician/band a high level of visability.
