    U2 definitely didn't play in The Cellar, my father was manager/worked in there for 20 odd years. The Boomtown Rats did though, they were asked (nicely) many times by my dad and other barmen to turn down their amps as they were too loud and customers upstairs were complaining. After Geldof and the boys ignoring the many requests, my dad pulled the plug and fecked them out of the pub :D


    They played the Claddagh hall, ticket was 20p according to my mate Heather, a Claddagh native and chuffed to bits that it was her first ever gig.

    Thin Lizzy played the 'Hilltop' in Salthill in the 70's!
