Are these people famous?

July 30, 2019 2:11 PM

Two years ago I was at the U2 concert at CenturyLink Field in Seattle. I was standing near the entrance to the VIP section and saw lots of fancy people going in and out (Eddie Vedder smiled at me!). There were two guys who looked super familiar to me, but I've never been able to figure out who they are. Are they famous?

The guy on the right looks like actor Miles Teller?

The guy on the left looks a lot like Lee Pace, but not enough for me to be sure.

Lee Pace is 6'5'', according to Wikipedia, so that's probably a "no".

They kinda look like the two guys from the show party down.

The guy on the right looks kinda like Marcus Mumford of the band Mumford & Sons.

I think those are some dudes from a season of the Bachelorette. I'll do some digging and report back.

Doing some googling, it looks like Mumford and Sons played that show, so I agree it might be Marcus Mumford...?

They don't look familiar to me at all, but I would guess by their body language and positioning that maybe the lady in the middle is the famous one. The guy on the left is def not Lee Pace and I think Marcus Mumford has a fuller face.

If either of those 2 guys are famous, I am guessing college athlete for the guy on the right.

Looks like Marcus Mumford and his brother James, plus the spouse of one or the other.

Mumford had a faint jawline beard when he was onstage for that show.

I am obsessed with this question about these extremely familiar-looking people and I am going to keep searching for who I think it is!

For what it's worth, there's some video from that particular concert online with Marcus Mumford on stage with U2 and Eddie Vedder. He has facial hair and def does not look like the guy in the pic.

Response by poster: Ah! Good ideas everyone, but I don't think any of these suggestions are right. I also thought it might be of the Mumfords and/or Sons at the time, but it's definitely not. I think the guy on the right kind of looks like Ezra Miller from Fantastic Beasts, but now I've stared at these photos so much that I can't trust my judgement anymore. Help!

Chiming in to say that I stood by the wealth corral for one of those shows and also took pictures of some of the vaguely familiar people in there, but never figured out who they were - other than Richard Branson, but I recognized him. I feel your pain.
