The Herald via Twentyfourbit:

Some might say U2 have been creating noise pollution for years.

And now the Dublin supergroup have been fined €36,000 after they breached noise levels during their Croke Park concerts in July.

Dublin City Council has issued penalties against music promoters MCD after Bono and his bandmates exceeded the allowed limits on a number of occasions during the gigs.

The council said, apart from the noise breaches, all other conditions attached to the Public Event Licence allowing the concerts to go ahead were complied with in full.
