We got word Friday afternoon that there will be an opening act at the McCartney Citi Field shows, which likely explains the 6:30 start for those shows. There's been no word either way on whether will be an opening act at FedEx Field Aug. 1 or at Halifax.
Update (6/16/09)
The big news Monday was the opening up of the third show after the first two sold out.
