The Point, Dublin, Ireland
U2 is the first band slated to perform at the new revamped Point, O2. Owner Harry Crosbie has big plans for the Dublin venue and wanted to reopen the venue with a bang. And after being revealed that he was close with both the band and the manager Paul McGuinness, it was little surprise as to who would play first. U2 has been using this venue for rehearsals before it even opened, so the history should set in nicely with their plans to grab the headlines in December. Fans in the Dublin area are very excited for U2 to perform and it should be another amazing performance from the legendary band.

The lead singer and the front man of the U2 band, Bono, who is always in the limelight now wants to inflate his media territory by purchasing the 125 million publishing company. Bono whose private equity company Elevation Partners is taking huge steps towards acquisition of California based Entrepreneur Media that comes up with  monthly magazines, kits and website for die hard wannabe business persons. This is not a new business venture for the U2’s leading man as his company Elevation Partners already has 40% stake in Forbes Media Group which his company had bought last summer by paying a whopping sum of 190 million. The Entrepreneur Media has been in the business of publishing for the past 30 years and there is strong news that is filtering through that Bono is very much interested in signing the deal which will make him one of the biggest media empire owners. But there has been no official confirmation of the same from ant Bono faithful so far and fans are also in dark about this matter.
