Setting Description:
You'll find everything from traditional Irish folk to jazz to rock. Dubliners are famously friendly, so even if you don't run into Bono, you'll probably talk to someone who has! If local history's your thing, tour Dublin Castle, or go to City Hall and trace Dublin's evolution since 1170.
