OMG WTF!!! B.O.B is their main support act eurgh hes totally different music to them and ok she did one song which is ok but only the parts hayley sings tbh im disappointed compared to last years support acts :( ohh :/ oh well ill just want paramore to hurry up and come on lol im not sure what the other act fun is like but tbh must be better than that lol. what do ppl think about the support acts???
x
well im not impressed either. thankgod i have seats, so i can miss the support acts :D
too many fans are too narrow minded. i think i'll enjoy watching B.o.B however i will get pissed off if people around me start to boo him, its disrespectful. its not like he's shit. its just not what you like
my thoughts exactly.
i think fun is okay, but b.o.b as support is a bit of a sell out, a bit like how 3oh!3 were in ke$has song and then they kind of returned the favour. i think its just a bit like, 'well you exposed us to some more people, so to say thanks, lets take you on tour.'
and yes, he's RAP for gods sake. RAP. the two genres dont generally mix.
ill still watch him though
im really annoyed that B.O.B supporting, it could have been a decent up and coming band not someone who is alreadyy famous and hes a differernt style of music
I think there going to be great.=D But it doesn't really matter what you think of the support acts coz you don't go to see them you go to see paramore .
All my life i have hated rap and that kind of genre BUT B.o.B is kinda not as bad... okay so his music is REALLY mainstream which is not what us paramore fans are into (well atleast i'm not anyway) artists like neyo or whatever hahah. But his music is sort of not as bad, it's more lighthearted in a way and seen as hayley and rivers cuomo (lead singer of Weezer) feature in his songs can only make him higher in my good books. At the end of the day, we are all going there just to see paramore so why not just have fun (excuse the pun hahah) whilst the other acts are on so it will get you pumped for when paramore own the stage! :D
"Fun" are shit, compared to B.o.B ad want B.o.B to be there
tbh Fun are gunna get boo'd off
@Sam
only if you're narrowminded enough to see it like that!
Ok, like many here, I'm not happy about Paramore opening their UK gigs with a rapper. I'd never heard of FUN either til recently, but from what I know now, I'd say they were about right. But I hate rap and I will never support a rapper for anyone! It does seem to be the in thing right now, doing a gig with an artist from a different genre and it's not difficult to see why, with tickets sales affecting even the biggest artists out there, it's a case of anything goes to get bums on seats. However, rather than bitch about it, may I suggest if you feel so strongly, why not make your feelings known by simply heading for the bar, the merchandise area or even the nearest bathroom until Paramore comes on. Have no fear, the band will get the message they made a big mistake when they see a half-filled arena for their opening act, even if it is all paid for. But in reality, these discussions won't make a blind bit of difference... actions speak louder than words people.
I'm okay with it. More people are gonna show up to their concerts now becos of B.o.B so it's getting Paramore out to more people. Plus Hayley said in an interview recently with Tegan and Sara that they want to take different music styles out on tour with them to open their fans up to new music. And the people they take on tour are also their friends as well so I'm cool with it. It'll be interesting to see Airplanes live, also (:
Wow what's with the hate?
Urgh I hate being on holiday, I miss things.
I think this is cool. It's a good thing that one of the support acts has a different style to Paramore, why would you want to sit/stand and listen to several bands that are almost the same? That would be boring.
Also, you know what this means? If B.o.B performs as support, Hayley is going to have to come out to sing her Airplanes parts. Since they've never performed it live together, the first time will be in the UK. Sweet.
Also, fun. supported them before on the spring tour. Check out whne Hayley joined them to perform At Least I'm Not As Sad As I Used To Be on youtube.
i've known B.o.B 's music since 2007 when Haterz Everywhere came out so i don't just like him for airplanes and i understand some people do and that's ok because it's such an amazing song. i also understand people may not like rap and may not like his music and that's ok because everyone is entitled to their own opinion but you gies don't have to be so harsh about it. i mean he is amazing and paramore picked him so leave it at that. they is no need to question his talent and say mean ignorant things. people need to chill sometimes when posting stuff.there is no need to be so harsh.
B.O.B - Nothing on you is also a great song :D
@aliica a if ur getting annoyed then dont read and comment about it then xD
@matt exactly ppl wudnt know him without the airplanes song but theres ppl out their who hate twilight ( i liked paramore way before tiwlight but i like twilight too) and hate ppl just liking paramore coz of it so its the same thing everyone is diff!
@comon chickens rounded it up nicely well said :) espec the last bit if ppl dont like that genre they dont like it doesnt have anything to do with being opened minded...as ppl wud of been once and then decided they didnt like that genre of music!
@michael zac farro i agree..i only started this topic to see what ppl thought and that it wasnt just me xD and ppl have gotta harsh over it to one another..iv had my opinion and others ppl its mixed so yeah im done :)
I don't really like B.O.B except for airplanes, but i absolutely love the other support act fun. They're sort of indie pop/rock. To be honest, moaning won't change the support, and as long as you're there you'll see paramore, so just shut up and look forward to it, agreed anyone?
B.o.B is the support act...
To be honest my heart sank when i read that.
I have nothing against him it's just...well i really don't like rap.
Who else is supportng them (better be hey monday :P)
@Alicia, but if people don't like rap, and people who are more into rock/alternative music, they're not going to be totally overjoyed about a rap artist supporting Paramore, are they? Usually I'd have the same attitude as you do towards it, but I think the fact that BoB is supporting Paramore is actually really unfair and really quite stupid. I have nothing agaisnt him, not at all, but it's not the fact that people aren't being open minded - if you don't like a certain genre of music, you don't friggin like it.
And I really don't think there's any need for so many abbreviations.
My eyes :(
@sam
I don't know B.o.B that well but it's true, if it wasn't for Airplanes i wouldn't know him.
Because of that awesome song though people will hear him live and get to know him, I imagine more people will start to like him (myself included) from that.
Like Paramore with Twilight.
If you want support acts, start your own band.
I'm really getting annoyed with people that are dissing him and aren't keeping an open mind for a different genre of music.
@keepmesafeinside yeah they were oh well im really hoping there be on longer as only 2 supports!
@tragically_hip just read blimey how werid xD that will be interesting when they perform lol
@x.Sam.x, thats what Bob says
http://www.google.ca/#hl=en&source=hp&q=BOB+hayley+have+never+met&btnG=G...
I TOTALLY AGREE.....ITS RUBBISH. YOU ME AT SIX WERE SO SO MUCH BETTER.
also just my opinon so dont have a go as some ppl are being really nasty to one another its ppls opinons no need for ppl to say grow up to one another! but how many ppl wud actually be pleased that b.o.b were supporting paramore if hayley hadnt done airplanes with him?? coz i dont reckon many ppl wud of done tbh ppl have probs only started liking him as hayley did one song im just saying so dont have a go but i wudnt be surprised if this was some ppls reason.
yeah i know no one is saying u cant but the majority of ppl wont like it xD
i dont mind that bob is supporting them, i think hes good. and just cos hes a different genre of music to them doesnt mean people who like paramore cant like him too.
i cant beleive people are even considering booing him even if they dont like him. how disrespectful is that? paramore chose him to support them, and im sure they wouldnt be all too pleased about their fans doing that to him.
@tragically hip are u serious they have never met xD
fair points everyone has made. and fun seem alright as its similar to their genre too. but imo i hate rap r and b etc so thats why i hate the fact bob are supporting them the only song i wont mind will be airplanes but only the bits hayley sings. and it just seems werid to bring a genre like that when its completely different to paramore as izzy said below u wudnt have bmth suppoting jls now..im going to the 02 and its fucking huge and i cant see many ppl going there who are gunna like bob.. and ppl are getting worked up about the boo thery wont hear u anyway as the venues are big and the music loud too lol xD and ppl said before that paramore cud be on longer if only 2 supports which may not be true they both might be on longer and have longer waiting times for the techys to set up etc..and yeah it wud be cool if they did announced another support similiar to their genre. but tbh i hope paramore are on longer :)
fun is the other support act and i actually like them quite a bit they got some catchy tunes.
and why do people want to boo someone because they dont like what they do.
i dispise rap and i wont boo him it is insukting you wouldent like it if he insulted you.
