Hello there....
« on: July 01, 2023, 03:00:23 PM »
Hi, I am new to the forum, but a long time fan...

My wife hails from Dalkey, so it's always fun to roam the streets of the band's home turf when we're back home visiting family.

I also play bass in U2TOPIA (www.U2TOPIA.com), a DC-based tribute band (https://www.youtube.com/@u2topia).  Throwing that out there in case anyone here is from the MD/DC area...

Cheers, and happy to be here!

If you want to post a flyer for your shows feel free....happy to tweet them too...

Although you probably have more followers than us! We are small but somewhat perfectly formed.

I think it would be pretty cool to have a tribute band member posting here. Welcome, and I hope you stick around.

I’ve seen a few (non U2) tribute bands and it’s always a great time. I’d definitely go but alas, not in my area.
