Pearl said:The Irish Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They have an entire floor dedicated to U2. I think they have the actual Fly suit or the Fly shades there. They also have the lyrics to songs that Bono wrote. Its a cool exhibit

As for other things to see - the fan graffiti on the walls around Bono's house as well as at Windmill are really great. Have a drink at the Octagon Bar at the Clarence Hotel too!
There was a great shop right on the river, not far from the Clarence. The name escapes me, but it had a big yellow sign - they had all sorts of U2 bootlegs and rare stuff. You could spend all your money there alone. Have fun on your trip - I'll be there again for one of the June shows - can't wait!

Has got some useful stuff listed. I used their maps and directions for when I went over there a few weeks ago.

But for all I know, someone was having a joke at our expense. That's why I wondered if anyone in Dublin could confirm the truth of this.
