Script and Pharrell set for Croke Park gig

The nationwide guessing game has finally come to an end, as The Script and Pharrell Williams are revealed as the acts playing Croke Park in 2015 — but not everyone is happy.

After promoters MCD released information about a super-secret big-gig announcement, the rumour mill was rife with speculation — theories quickly formed around prospective artists such as Robbie Williams, One Direction, U2, AC/DC, and Taylor Swift.

Even David Bowie, who is due to release a greatest hits compilation called Nothing Has Changed next month, was tipped for the top slot.
