PEACE FROM IRELAND

[cailinisfearr]

I had tears in my eyes during this song.. what a rollercoaster of emotions singing this song in croke park.. it is a memory which will stay with me forever...

and what a show overall.. u2 you continue to be the best entertainers around!!

Le grá..

[DJEMMEY25]

The tickets for this concert were a rip off. I bought the most expensive one's thinking I would be close 2 the stage which I wasnt, I was in the hogan stand. For the price I paid I expected 2 get up closer but instead was miles away. I found out that their was people on the pitch who paid only half the price that I did and got alot closer, this doesnt make sense. Did I pay double just for my seat! U2 charge away too much for thier tickets and rip people off!!!

[edawglemon]

cause they know people will buy them and they will sell out EVERY show haha

[DJEMMEY25]

well i wont be buying tickets to see U2 again. their a good band but not wont the price the charge

[TacomaPaul]

@DJEMMEY25 Gee.... too bad you're not OLD like I am (same age as Bono) and saw them for $4 at a small club in Seattle in 1984. HA !

[DJEMMEY25]

@TacomaPaul Yeah but that was away back in the stone age when they were nobodys HA !

[IrishPatriarch]

Screw politics people. It always gets brought in. This song was in protest to the violence and criticizing the American's (thats you) who tell the Irish to keep the war alive. NOBODY wants to. Violence, worrying about your kids coming home from school. Things are finally starting the quiet down; that's the way we like and that's the way it's going to be. The "Troubles" were an embarrassment to everyone. Get a life and enjoy the song...exactly what this song was written to try and discourage.

[rezasharifi0098]

viva IRAN!!!

[jpk909]

i was there!!upper cusack stand!

[XXAWAKENXX]

This was done in support of the green freedom movement in IRAN. Great message! I think the youth in IRAN really could enjoy more of such solidarity.

[zyggy32]

Which Night was this???? I was in the Upper Hogan Stand on Saturday night have attached my video.... Rated this Excellent

[patryk229]

Stalem pod scena na ochronie. Dobry koncert!!

[GoldfischPeter]

reading theses posts makes one think, "how long must they sing this song"? unbelievable.

[DaveHult]

i was there!!!!!!!!!

[doylealand]

get alife you sap what would u know about the trouble decades ago

[fanuithe]

So, did anyone enjoy the show????

[nn888nn]

for fuck sake lads,cant you just enjoy the music?nobody owns any of these lands,you can think you have a right to a country because your from there,but you dont have a right to refuse another person entry to that land..that land will still be there when your dead and buried....so who owns it?

[Remedysback]

It isnt just about the land. Its about fighting for freedom. I live in Armagh and every time i see the union jack flying in the town center it near makes me sick. But when i come home to my area and see tricolours flying from every post it feels right. Too many have died at the hands of the british over the century's we can never let there deaths be in vain.

[Remedysback]

Although this is an anti war song it serves a a strong reminder of the continued occupation of 6 of the 32 countys of our country and the pain caused by that occupation.

[dannymc18eire]

Oh get a grip and grow up.

[Remedysback]

Explain to me how my clear true and obvious statement is in anyway immature? Im a republican im entitled to my own view. Maybe u should wake up never mind grow up.

[chizulch4]

All citizens of the republic of Ireland are republicans. Stop trying to hijack the concept for yourself.

[Remedysback]

Jesus if thats what u think a republican is your even more lost than i thought you where. I gave u too much credit. Go read the Irish Proclamation of Independence i think you need a reminder of what many have died for.

[chizulch4]

Go read the definition of the word "republican" in a dictionary. It does not mean "someone who wants a 32 county republic of Ireland". It refers to anyone who supports a democratic government such as in Ireland, France, Germany, etc. But some groups in this country want to hijack the term and apply it to themselves alone. Well it wont wash, mate.

[Remedysback]

There is a big difference between an Irish republican and a republican.

[Mrmcgourty]

shut the fuck up mate!!! if you want English then move over to England. I would be much happier if Ireland was a whole.

[dannymc18eire]

If I want English? You mean that language you just typed in? Why would I move anywhere when you're providing it for the world.

[adrock182]

Think so!

[aliceoidefix]

It WAS A Killer gig, 80000 souls in extasy, the ground shaking and deafening applause.

I m so greatful i could be there ( flew ther from Vienna<)

[bruceleeC64]

Edge has someone below filling in on guitar mostly for double tracking: FACT

[jbalbirnie]

yea dont think so .....

[bruceleeC64]

yep someone i know was doing support on fri. not surprising with the amount of layered tracks

[page358]

i was there on the 25th, my 1st ever U2concert and definatetelly not my last, totally awesome!!!!!!

[skeelful08]

U2 are getting old. And boring. I wonder why people still go to their concerts. I'm Irish, by the way.

[keanejason]

The 1 million people who attended their concert in the last month would probably disagree with you !

[dannymc18eire]

Where you even there? Monday night - live musics Concorde moment.

[moiduet]

Im going tomorrow :) :) :)

[smurf022]

so am i, see u there

[cnocnacille76]

The stage was supposed to be in the middle some fans were far too far away like the stand in front of the stage, and they were the most expensive seats,( it was suppose to be the next best pace after standing sold out but it was shit)

[pmclean69]

Going tomorrow, can't wait for it!!!! Thanks for the taster, come on!!!

[wioletta01]

STHFGDBY

[PureFuckingVanity]

was there last night... was fucking amazing

[nirvanarock93]

this was amazing

[wioletta01]

Looks good I can't wait for monday night :)

One thing though. I feel a little a little tiny bit hard done by!! Ireland is the only place where fans cannot feel the 360 effect they feel in every other country. I'm very disappointed about that. Why could they not have put the stage at the other end to fill hill 16?????? :(

[PMcM1007]

OMG i sooooo jealous of all the irish today,,,,that gig looks sooo cooool,,,,god dam why are u2 not comeing to the states???

Any way congrats to u2 there like wine they get better with age!!!! wish i could be ireland today,,,,,ENJOY the rest of the concerts IRELAND,,!!

[stepheneamonn]

U2 are going to the states, tickets not on sale till March though the tour dates are announced.

[STHFGDBY]

In fairness U2 owe everything to America because thats where they made their name. I hope they do play there again. I wish I could have gone to the concert, I just live about 5 mins away from Croke Park. Its an amazeing Stadium and the stage set up was the best Ive ever seen, it was enormous. Were very proud of U2 over here.

[PMcM1007]

yeah it looks cool....we have just seen clips on here and local TV,,,, but cant understand why they dont play over here!!!!

WOW you live 5 mins from stadiaum,,,,free gig for you ..!!!!! lolz..lolz..

[STHFGDBY]

I believe they are playing in the States soon as part of their World tour..

[FionnBaguh]

dublin, the best place to see U2

[arctic666monkeys]

best concert ever :)

i wonder why no one could go onto hill 16?? anyone know, that would have been a couple more thousand tickets :-s

glasvegas were horrible opening the show, just shit :P

[MsTiny72]

I has something to do with Sound,it was in the Irish Independent during the week,

I cant wait for Monday night :)

What was Damien Dempesy like?

[arctic666monkeys]

yeah dempesy was decent from what i heard, only got to my seat at the end of his set but the speakers are so loud that you could here it down the road anyways

[dymphna1]

my fav part was larry playing bongo ....brill

[herflig24]

bono we love you,you are the best,2moro we go again:)

[aoibhe]

Why did they stick the stage setup away at one end of the field? I thought it was going to be in the middle.
