I just stuck my head out the window there.. I am in rathfarnham, and I am in the edmonstown area, I'm the last esate out before the dublin mountains, and i can hear a slight rumble, sounds almost like a plane in the distance, like it's that loud, (not really loud at all but you can still hear it far off. It'd be cool just hangin around town.. like it's be ral loud.

The Real B-man

nah not in wicklow

Sparky

yeah i thought someone was showing off a car sound system untill i went up to the attic and stuck my head out, and seen yellow and white flashing lights, and i could see the garda helicopter flying around in circles.

I think its over now, ill have to wait till tomorrow

You must of woke up today with hissing in your ears.

It was buzzing more than hissing, but it was very satisfying buzzing!

I live next to croker so can hear it. Not so bad, but on sunday night will not be welcomed as I am working on monday early......

We also didn't get free tickets even though our streets are jammed/closed off all the time for the gig.

Fozzy

They're not playing Sunday night, are they?

did you enter the local lottery for them?

is_that_so

Some people in Canal End couldn't hear properly

Rubens

It wasn't that loud inside - I was up near the front!!

I was at Slayer a couple weeks back - now THAT was loud

Civilian_Target

I could hear it from Georges Dock.
Slayer wasn't *that* loud - you always need much less amplification for indoor gigs anyway....

Sparky

could be with all the traffic noise you couldnt hear it.

Shrimp

I could hear it really well today.. I could make out some songs.. for example. "Pride"

eth0_

Could barely hear it tonight, i'm in Ashtown, only a few miles away.

The stadium and it's concerts and matches were there before you.

My gf lives in Drumcondra and reckons she could hear it Friday night clearly.

Sparky

tis on tonight, i must say it seems louder than friday,

adox

I was at the gig friday night and I actually thought the volume was quite low for a rock concert.

One things for sure,Croke Park aint suited for concerts.The sound was appalling :eek:

here here.

was on upper canal end, that whole area seemed to be affected. bout a 3 second delay between the drums and vocals. Everything sounded out of time

Victor

I live past Rathmines and I thought some idiot in the neighbourhood was starting his party early

JackKelly

Heard it up here near Dundrum

disillusioned

heard it last nite off collins ave

newgrange

I could barely hear it and I'm in the North Strand. Strangely, some friends in East Wall which is further away could hear it perfectly.
Some physics thing presumably.

babaduck

Frisay night was very disappointing - the sound on the pitch was atrocious, you couldn't see the stage (fair enough I'm not that tall but one of the lads is 6' 4" & he couldnt either!) and there was no real buzz or interaction with the crowd

But last night was magic! We were in the Hogan Stand & the place rocked. Sound was much better & the atmosphere was electric

prospect

I was there last night aswell, in the canal stand, sound was perfect, and loud....

Could ya here me singing?????

beanyb

I could hear it in Knocklyon last night, twas crazy!

rcaz

I work in Lilac Wines in fairview (shameless self-promotion; nothing beats it), and nothing. Kept walking in and out between drawing on a picture of Bono (hate U2 with a passion), and couldn't hear anything. Someone was saying something to do with the wind, but I didn't think that'd affect sound waves. Ah well.
