Anyone know who is opening for BSS?

Man, the vocals are lousy in that version. So soft. Torquil has never sounded more like a failed actor.
Conan O'Brien, on last night's show, started singing "Fairytale" with an Irishman he picked up in the livery cab he was driving.

metric are going to blow the rolling stones off the stage. true that.

Feist is opening for BSS for the upcoming Toronto shows, so maybe she'll open in NYC.
The Stars single for "Your Ex-Lover Is Dead" with the Pogues b-side was released in CD-S form, but was only available at the six Toronto Xmas shows (I'm kicking myself for NOT picking it up!!)

Very much hoping it's TMSR, who recently toured with them through Europe.
