The gigs will be going ahead with or without you.
U2 are of course playing six Irish gigs in November – four in Dublin and two in Belfast.
Tickets went on sale at 9am this morning on Ticketmaster and, as expected, they were like gold dust.
As usual, Twitter was the place to be to see the mad rush that took place across Irish computers this morning…

The glimmer of hope for those not so fortunate this time around is that there are already rumours of more nights being added. Here’s hoping…
