Kelis, already on the bill for the Slane Castle concert, will also be lining up with U2 for shows in Utrecht, Manchester and Birmingham.

U2.COM can confirm further details on acts travelling with U2 on the European leg of their Elevation 2001 Tour - including a couple of changes from earlier announcements.

In Copenhagen and Stockholm, Welsh rockers Stereophonics (pictured left) will be the support act.

In Cologne, Munich and Berlin expect to hear Sohne Mannheims.

For Paris it will be Stereophonics again, who will also be on stage for shows in Barcelona and Antwerp.

Kelis are joined by Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Coldplay, JJ72 and Relish for the Slane Castle show.
