A Life in Dublin

Mark and Eoin - Celebrating the 40 year anniversary of U2's album 'War'

Ep. 51

Ireland’s biggest ever rock band, U2, released one of their most iconic album’s, entitled War, way back in 1983. To commemorate the 40 year anniversary of this album myself and Eoin decided to have a chat about the album itself and U2 in general. 


Somehow or another we got a little bit off topic and started asking ourselves who has aged better, Bono or Tom Cruise but we did get a good grip on what the album War meant for U2 and how it propelled them into the stadium rock legends that they inevitably became.


As always thanks to you for listening and for all the warm messages and support that we get from you. This podcast truly has been a life changing hobby for myself and I hope to be able to continue to bring you lots of new episodes for the foreseeable future! Remember that we run live podcasts on Monday evenings in The Black Sheep pub on Capel Street. If you’d like to come along to one of those events, just get in touch with us on Instagram.
