Kings of Leon Headlining Slane Castle


Kings of Leon are going to perform at Slane Castle in Ireland; May 28, 2011. Anyone that is going or has been knows of what an epic concert this will be. The concert held most years since 1981 at the Slane Castle in Slane Village. (Hence the name of the concert). This location is so perfect because with the hills of Ireland & the Stage at the bottom this creates a natural amphitheatre. This concert has the perfect surrounding with the rolling hills and the River Boyne it creates a perfect setting for an amazing concert. Although amazing it can be dangerous, some have died while trying to swim across the river to get free entrance to the concert. I recommend to just buy your ticket.
