And Garth Brooks. Why? Garth wanted to play five shows. However, there's an annoying local law...
Residents opposed the shows citing an ordinance stating the Croke Park venue where the concerts were set to take place is prohibited from hosting more than three concerts per year. Exceptions can be made by requests to the Dublin City Council.

Enjoy your arbitrary bureaucracy. Hope it's worth the cash it just cost you.
