On one hand
this could be a good thing as more people will hear how good the dears are. On the other hand, I am appalled.

my thoughts exactly

That's BRILLIANT NEWS!
Gang of Losers is mediocre but No Cities Left was a radical manoeuver. So, in the grand scheme of things, The Dears are slightly above-average. GREAT
Oh dear...
Publicity for a great band... but Keane?
No Cities Left is possibly my favourite album of all time. It's just lovely.
without a doubt....
the worst live band i have seen in years. haven't even given the 2nd album a glance after witnessing how bored they looked on stage, why they bothered to even walk on stage i don't know?
wembley would be an ideal venue to see them, at least you can go for a stroll outside the main room to avoid them (and keane).
The Dears
were awful the first time I saw them. However, the second time was life-changing. I think they just run hot and cold. And the latest one is their 3rd album :)
i really liked no cities left
but they constantly whip out that cheesy shit with the hand-clapping kid. god that was annoying.
Polytechnic
Polytechnic are supporting on the remaining Keane dates.
That reply
was obviously in the wrong place. But they are. Really.
i think
i would suffer through keane as long as i get to see the dears
