Wow, that's scary. They even have a picture of his gates! I wouldn't be happy if I was him!

I have goggle earth but haven't used it lately, so I went and checked and those 'push pins' of 'the entrence to Bono's house' and the actual house are a little of the mark, especially the 'push pin' of Bono's house, it's waaay off! Which is just as well!! I know the exact location of both but I ain't telling!!

Yes! Respect is the name of the game. I could never even think about approaching his home. Studio? Yes, concert venue, yes....
but I wouldn't dream of intruding on his family time. I would feel like Bona Vox, extremely guilty for even being in the vincinity even if it was a mistake!

Just going to his gates, get a quick photo. 10 minutes maximum near his house, then head to the beach or prolly look around the village.

You should do what we did and walk up the Vico road from Dalkey to Killiney. It's a lovely walk with some great scenery (so long as it's not too foggy!) and many beautiful homes. Or maybe do the opposite and walk from Killiney to Dalkey!! Just a suggestion. Hope you have a lovely time! Don't forget to visit the Irish Rock 'n Roll hall of Fame!!

Hey all! I am going to Dublin the first week of October!
Thank you for the pointers hcbiggs!
Is the Irish rock n roll hall of fame Hanover Quay?

For those of you going to see Bono's gates security there will move you almost immediately away from the gates, my advice look from across the road and take your photos quickly and move!
Once you take the photos you will be asked to leave. When we walked past in June some fans were hanging around and as we got near we heard them being told to leave!
Just one more thing PLEASE don't scribble on the gates or the walls on Vico Road (the walls along the road looked like they ahd been jet washed) as it just looks awful, leave your messages at HQ on the wall OPPOSITE the studio fans are now writing on the doors into the studios!!
You must go to Dalkey and into Finnegans and Queens for a few Guinness you never know who may be in!!

I agree Rini, just being there, taking a few photos and I'll be satisfied that I visited and can say I've been there. (I would REALLY love to see U2 Live in Dublin though!)

Yes! A bush named Bono Although I won't be getting my tail to Dublin anytime soon, I'm now tempted to find a similar bush around here and do that, just for the heck of itRini said:What a great idea, DreamOutLoud13. That would have made even a more fun picture. Then post it for all of us to enjoy (hug the bush while holding up two fingers?).
