The two words “Irish music” usually brings to mind some cheesy dance where you’re not allowed to move your arms. If Riverdancing ain’t your thang, then maybe you might try listening to a little band called U2.
The great Irishmen are touring again—and with no signs of stopping it would seem. Despite huge demands for the rockers, the band is only going to be playing one California date for their 360° Tour, on October 25 at the Rose Bowl. Yeah, one!
Naturally, the band didn’t choose San Diego. You’re going to have to fill up your tank (or take an Amtrak) up to our sister city of Los Angeles to catch the band. The Black Eyed Peas will open.
