    Can anyone else hear U2 doing the soundcheck at the moment? Am in Phibsborough and sound like they are playing in my living room. Can't wait for tomorrow night :(

    Seriously though I've never heard anything like it, surely there are noise limits?

    It does be terrible Joe!

    I can hear a faint whisper out here in Dun Laoghaire.

    Great night out. Brings a fortune into the city. I'd love to have had a ticket!

    Well am ringing him anyway, the miserable f**ker. Make him work for that 300K or whatever it is salary, he can damn well listen to me complain about being force fed Sunday Bloody Sunday against my will.

    U2 are so posh. They do their soundcheck the night before! 2pm tomorrow afternoon not good enough for them?

    They probably would have done two nights if it was. Really poorly planned tour but I think they are at the behest of Livenation to milk them for what they can before their touring deal ends.

    You have a few options. Headphones or just leave the house for a few hours - cinema or a pub or a restaurant. The world is your oyster if you feel that strongly about it.
