One-off Dublin gig for U2 rumoured

U2 are said to be planning a one-off gig in Dublin.

It's believed the show will take place at the city's Vicar Street venue, according to MTV.

It is owned by Harry Crosbie, who's a partner in Dublin's U2-owned Clarence Hotel.

But a spokesman for U2 said the band were just about to set off to the US for some promotional work, which made the practicality of the gig very difficult.

U2 are expected to announce their European dates in the next few days.
