Seriously: their free open-air concert in Berlin, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Wall, will be blocked off so that only a limited number of people can see it.

I'm curious to see pictures of the new "wall". In the meantime I wonder was it the Irish Times Berlin Correspondent getting a bit carried away with something in order to simply satisfy a desire (!) to stuff in as many U2 allusions as possible ("to run, to crawl, to scale this city wall only to be with U2", "...no view on the horizon...", "...can find what they’re looking for..."). He only forgot to tell us if it was visible from Zoo Station.
