U2 go home: an impression


U2-madness was sweeping over Dublin this weekend: U2 was everywhere, it’s not just the shows themselves but the whole atmosphere around them that make Dublin concerts so special. Every pub played their music, coverbands cranked out U2 songs, the photo copy shop had a special U2 offer for photo prints and the local fast food joint advertised its opening hours for the weekend: from 4 pm until late.

After the shows, the Dublin streets were engulfed by a sea of people going for a drink in Temple Bar.

Many reviews the day after, of course!



It was a great time to be a U2 fan in Dublin!

I was there in 2005 and it was the same.
It was amazing ….

I had never seen U2 play a show there, so the trip was like a pilgramage for me. Dublin is my Mecca. My Wife and I had a great time. The two shows we saw were amazing. The City and the people we met were wonderful.
But as always, the best part was the fans. I save up my holidays waiting for U2 to tour and have seen them on every continent at least once. The places change but the people remain the same. U2 fans share a connection and a comradary second to none. On this trip we met other Canadians, Americans, Austrailians, Germans, English, Italians, Spaniards all there to have a good time, and share their love of the biggest band in the world.
