U2 ::: Alamid to open for U2 Doha show in Oct '11

It was confirmed to me by none other than Alamid's vocalist Carl McFly that his band will be the opening act for U2 when the latter play their first ever show in the Gulf State of Qatar in October 2011.

So I asked him and he was coy at first but eventually said I got it right. I was a bucket of emotions when I read that but I really can't be any happier for the guy, this couldn't be more apropos!

I bet all his friends are lining up to get him to have something signed by the band. Now where's that U2 By U2 book I got...
