    Yea they definitely weren't as comfortable in Dublin and it affected the performance.

    A second show would have solved that instantly. First show the nerves, second show the joy. Always like that. Why they haven't hit Croker 2 times is beyond us all and will remain a mistery forever I'm afraid
  5. Performance aside, the setlist choice was indifferent and odd. The snippets were strange.

    People outside and the lady of the airbnb I was staying at said that there are only 4 shows a year allowed at Croke Park, and after U2 the 4 shows already been done.
  7. So why not play another venue ? Slane etc ??
  8. I thought there's only 3 allowed a year. Especially after the Garth Brooks fiasco. Coldplay and U2 have played so far at Croke this year. Don't know of anyone else.
  9. Slane is limited too since there's a lot of disruption to those in the village.
  10. Play Belfast then

    That's simply not good enough! A band like U2 going "home" back to Ireland you would think that there would be at least 3 dates
  12. I think there's more to it why they didn't do a 2nd Irish date. I think the band and even promoters would have been keen on it, guaranteed sell out. There must have been something stopping them we don't know about.
