Simple Minds, 3Arena, Dublin, ★★★★☆
It takes a lot of confidence to open with a song as monumental as ‘Waterfront’ and not worry about your gig peaking while you’re still warming up, but Simple Minds’ self-belief is well-placed. Having been repromoted back to the arenas which are their natural home as people realised how good they’ve always been, they appear to be enjoying themselves as much as any punter on Monday night.
