WATCH: Amy Schumer received a personalised card from U2 before her Dublin gig

She is kind of a big deal.

Comedian Amy Schumer was performing in Dublin on Friday night and by the sounds of things, she put on a hell of show at the 3 Arena.

She also seemed to genuinely have a whale of a time in town over the last couple of days, seeing sites with her brother and leaving a MASSIVE tip for a waitress in Doheny & Nesbitt on Baggot Street for good measure too.

On Saturday afternoon, she posted a brief highlights package from her Dublin gig on Twitter, including a tale about a fairly stubborn old guy in the audience and some good wishes she received in a personalised card from U2.

A nice touch from Bono and company; hardly a surprise when the U2 frontman did suggest that Amy, Chris Rock and Sacha Baron Cohen be sent in to tackle ISIS earlier this year.

Come back soon Amy.
