U2 Tower in Ireland - No Go for Now
Filed under: Music Minute > Bono
The shitty economy has claimed yet another victim!
Bono and the other U2 guys have been forced to scrap plans to build Ireland's first skyscraper because of the crap state of the global markets.
The U2 Tower was going to be built in the heart of Dublin to house a variety of luxury apartments and the group's recording studio.
The project was projected to cost $256.8 million.
The band is reportedly set on suspending the plans indefinitely.
Bummer!

wow that much money for just a stupid building, thank god it got cancelled.
nice chicas.
…sigh. The world needs another luxury skyscraper. Such a loss.
What's going to be a bummer is when his wife sees this picture….hee hee!!!
Shithead…
Slow day, eh homo? U2 sucks anyway, they're about as talented as my left nut, LOL!
Oh, not to worry, when Obama wins, he will cure the world of all that ails it, right?
)))) Wrong!
Why did you use the picture of him with the two fans? All rock stars take pictures like that with fans, whether they are married or not. It doesn't mean anything. Bono is someone I truly admire. All the haters need to get a life.
HOW ABOUT INSTEAD OF POSTING THIS BULLSHIT YOU POST ABOUT OBAMAS AUNT LIVING IN THIS COUNTRY ILLEGALLY AND RECEIVING GOVT ASSISTANCE AND PUBLIC HOUSING?!! HUH??!? LOOKS LIKE OBAMA ONLY BELIEVES IN SPREADING THE WEALTH WHEN ITS NOT HIS MONEY!! AND DONT FORGET THAT SHE DONATED TO HIS CAMPAIGN…AN ILLEGAL DONATING TO A PRESIDENT'S CAMPAGIN?? HMMMMMMMMM….SHADY…
haha ermm jus so you know we have sky scrapers here!!
Maybe it is TIME all this consumerism got pulled back.
Who is going to PAY for all Obama's promises? Now he is backpedalling. He has been TOLD he can't DO all the stuff he promises. You are going to be SO DISAPPOINTED. I can't wait to watch that house of cards fall down.
Karma is a bitch !!
Looks like the two broads wearing the same bikinis are from some escort service or something.
Love ya, Perez xoxoxox
Was it really necessary to use that picture?!?
Re: Ó!!!SEMICOLON!!!rli –
Hahaha no we don't
This has notting to do with Obama. Its because Ireland has gone into recession.
U2 and especially Bono are major douchebags.$256.8 million to SATISFY THEIR VANITY.is this how they will eliminate poverty in the third world countries as they 're struggling for yrs to convince us that they want?I'm so disgusted and ashamed of being a fun of U2 for 10 yrs.THESE PEOPLE ARE AN UGLY JOKE NOWADAYS.
i'm glad it got cancelled. just what we need, another sky scraper! is he just another bloody materialist?
Does anybody really give 2 shitz about U2 anymore?? They havent made any new music in like forever..Theyre pretty much and oldies group now. I,d like to shove those stupid glasses up bono's ass..he looks stupid. He probably just got done boning these two sluts.
Why don't they donate all the money to feed the hungry in the world instead of housing the wealthy - go ahead Bono - keep telling me how much "I" should donate to feed the hungry!
go to dublin and you will understand why they need this new tower ! at dublin,music studios are in the docks and the city want to rebuild docks so every one go out! and you're right it's bad to invest in their town or country!
nice stupid photo with fans!
$256 million for a skyscrapper that size seems CHEAP…seriously…those projects usually cost billions…
Ymi ms Right now I really wanna 23 & 24. Which would probably turn into 25
nrhwywri Would love to SS durning SNL 2nite! 46 hmaw
nice chicks bono! having his $ i shurely would have chicks around me like that too hahahahah.
Being Irish,Being proud of heritage and its poulation???????
All the stereotypical tourist sees in Ireland is drink,green,accents and the odd leperachaun and u2.
u2 are NOT the spokes people of our country,they speak for themselves not mankind or on gods behalf.
If BONO has that kind of money to build something worthless surely it would benefit the third world countries far more then a skyscraper whioch has no use in Dublin.
Dublin is over crowded enough especially with people who are homeless support them and not A SKY SCRAPER.
As an example of wasted gov money on uneccessary items , bringing our country to its knees is the SPIRE its an utter disgrace and joke of a piece of architecture get rid of it and spend the money where its put to use……….
cuddles n kisses bitches xxxx
Good a skyscraper would look woeful in Dublin
who real care about this?
Re: SoCalSkippy – Sorry but your pumpkin sucks!
I know who the Girl on the Right is!!. Lol she graduated from my school like 2 years ago. God thats strange. hahahah
Re: Ó!!!SEMICOLON!!!rli – where????
a skyscraper ion the middle of dublin would ruin the city.im sick of people ruining my country with stupid shit like that.we dont want skyscrapers its lovely just the way it is.and yeah besides that ugly fucking spire thing…get rid of it big mistake with that one..dont make another with a bloody skyscraper.
I would have figured that they could afford almost anything with the money they've saved since fleeing to Amsterdam to avoid Irish taxes. Bono is a douche, and everybody else in U2 is a nobody.
Bono's mouth is open, just waiting for some dude to drop a cock in it.
