U2 Go Home: an Impression

Murray's Bar on O'Connell StreetTribute band announcement

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, cover bands 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.
