I have to say i'm not a U2 fan, but i liked the pictures. Especially seeing Croke Park again as it reminded me of the GAA Hurling final i saw there last summer.
Glad u enjoyed yourself tho.

Not really my cup of tea but it looks like it would have been a great gig. Why wasn't the hill open???

Nice pic Toker, certainly more people in the stadium then compared to when i went to see Kilkenny v Wexford haha.
It looks like a similar set up as the Celine Dion concert last year also, where the small stand wasn't used either. Not that i had much choice in going to that gig i might add!

Struth!
By not much choice, do you mean you were shackled and marched at gunpoint in front of the stage?
I'd rather run backwards while naked through a corn field, than see her.
As a Canadian citizen I apologize on behalf of us all for inflicting her on the world.

I wish! At least i might be forgiven then. Instead i did it to put a smile on a young girls face....i know...i am a mug!
Luckily there was a pub not too far from the nearest exit mind you!! haha
