16/05/1980 St John’s Hall, Tralee, Ireland. 11 O’clock Tick Tock Leg 1 May, Ireland 1980.

U2’s opening act for this leg of the tour was The Myster Men, another Dublin band. This period was a significant moment in U2’s early career as they were still relatively unknown outside of Dublin. They played small venues, and the tour helped solidify their presence in the Irish music scene. Frank Kearns a friend of Larry Mullen since their school days, was the guitarist with the Myster Men. Frank remembers U2 playing the 3 tracks from U2-3, Another Day and 11 O’clock Tick Tock on these concerts.
