Saw Ash supporting U2 at Lansdowne in 97. They were dwarfed on that huge stage. Sound was terrible but to be fair they were still without Charlotte at that stage.

Did they play " An Cat Dubh" or " Out Of Control" ?
Each of the above has appeared at some point in the set list to date if rumours are to be believed... a real retro vibe ..... Saw them doing a bit of " I Will Follow " on news footage of the gig last night.

I was a bit dissapointed with the sound, there was an echo, and although the songs could be heard well enough, when Bono was talking I couldn't make out a f*cking word he was saying!!!

If it is the ones I'm thinkin of they are a really old band that inspired a lot of U2's music...

The Edge also admitted that my favourite all-time band, Echo & The Bunnymen, inspired some riffs and guitar parts on the Atomic Bomb album. Nice credit to the Bunnies, and that despite the fights between Bono and King Ian.

I enjoyed every minute of it.
Vertigo is a great stadium gig song.
"Hello, Hello..."
Loved City of Blinding lights.
It was great just standing there and looking around to see Croker lit up and to have over 80,000 people giving it socks!

Brilliant show, worth every cent.
