FWIW I saw both Sam Roberts and Joel Plaskett this tour, and I thought Joel Plaskett was better.

The Sam Roberts Band is amazing! After seeing them open for The Hip a few times, I was hooked. I saw their show last week in Cambridge, MA and they were fantastic!!!

My greatest opener of any show was the Music and Eisley opening for Coldplay...I ended up going to the show mildly excited about Coldplay, slightly excited about the music and no idea who eisley was. I left the show BLOWN AWAY by the Music, VERY IMPRESSED with the show Coldplay put on, and INSPIRED to find any music I could from Eisley. That was a great bill second only to the Roadside where the hip brought Wilco along!
