HMV stage midnight U2 opening

HMV will be opening their Grafton Street, Dublin and Eyre Square, Galway stores at midnight on Thursday February 26 so that Irish fans can be among the first in the world to get a copy of the album.
“We’ve had an incredible amount of interest with a considerable number of pre-orders,” says HMV’s Gennaro Castaldo. “We advise fans to come down early to be in with a chance of receiving a U2 goody bag.”
With No Line On The Horizon not out elsewhere until early the following week, it’s expected that hundreds of hardcore U2 fans will be flying in to get a head start on their compatriots.
