Well after reading all the complaints about the sound on this tour, I was a little sceptical about the show I was heading to at Dublin at the weekend. I needn't have been.
Friends of mine were in the stands on Friday night and said the sound was fantastic. I was on the floor on Saturday night and the sound was great again. Now I have seen some people complaining about both nights at Croke, but no-one I know who went had any issues at all. Oh, and just for you Jim, I'm a trained sound engineer so I know what's good and what's not.
I thought the sound quality was excellent, and to be honest most of the bootlegs from this tour have been great quality too so. I'm not saying the sound wasn't a problem in some parts of some stadiums, but from what I know from being there and most of my friends say the same having sat/stood in different parts, then the two shows at Croke were spot on.
On a slightly cheerier note, here's a couple of pics from Saturday's show:
