Irony aside, WTF are they supposed to do? You need some sort of crowd control at big events...

Maybe do it for free and let everyone watch? It's not the first concert they've had at the wall. What did they use back then?

Bono would have commented, but he was busy juggling pushing debt and famine relief, education reform and general goodness with finding new and improved offshore tax havens to avoid paying taxes to his somewhat impoverished country.

Dat's wot oil coil ah greet oirishmun.

First line of the article:
MTV bosses have denied they built their own Berlin 'wall' to restrict people from viewing U2's free gig in the German capital on Thursday night (05Nov09), insisting they beefed up security to ensure fans' safety.

The East Germans started with a fence.

THEN they built the wall.

Just sayin.
