What's the FocusIn 1978, the likelihood of a rock band from Dublin to be awarded more Grammy's than any other group and go on to sell more concert tickets than any other artist in history was laughable to say the least.
This is a story of how grit and loyal friendship made what seemed impossible, possible. Immerse yourself into the places where it all began and learn how 4 young lads from the North side of Dublin found each other and what influenced their art and message. Whether you are an artist, an activist, a musician, a fan, a writer or a poet, a person of faith or not, this pilgrimage is for you. |
