If it is the ones I'm thinkin of they are a really old band that inspired a lot of U2's music...Originally Posted by Peadar
On U2.com, the support act for saturday is listed as Paddy Casey and The Thrills, at least you can catch up on some sleep!!!Well at least there's no danger of missing pints to see the support acts on Saturday now. Probably would've made an effort for the Radiators, just to check them out. I already know Paddy Casey and The Thrills are shít.
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
Way before my time so then.
As I say, I don't really mind.
I like live music.
What's the weather supposed to be like?

Nothing would make me happier tiktok, but it was a seating ticket and it was either mine or another one of the lads, so no hope I'm afraid, however if I do hear of any...I don't suppose you want to give it to me do you
Here are the seating arrangements so you can check.
I'm in 702.
I'm in 303 or 304 I think.
Don't you behave like a typical Shels fan and throw bottles down at me!

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.

I'm off to Heathrow in the next hour or so.

Just back. Good gig. Gutted tho. No Bad & no "40. If they can play "40 in Europe they can play fukcing "40 here. Pr1cks. Gutted. Good gig. No Achtung Baby tho.
"I always likened him to a Rolls Royce. You just used him once a week & he'd be flawless"
Townsend on McGrath
Colie
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!!!
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.
The Fly
Zoo Station
One all come from Achtung Baby and on Saturday night they added Mysterious Ways to that
In Trap we trust
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.
