The centre of Dublin came to a standstill on Christmas Eve when a group of buskers took to the streets to raise money for charity.
For this busking group included pop superstar and U2 frontman Bono.
Bono joined Glen Hansard, Damien Rice, Mundy, Liam O’Maonlai and others on Grafton Street to raise money for the Dublin Simon Community, a group that works to prevent homelessness and aid the homeless.
Bono sang along to Stand By Me, One, and Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door, before slipping away while the others carried on.
One fan told the local paper The Hot Press: “That was incredible. I was out innocently doing my shopping when I saw a crowd gathered.
“I couldn’t believe my eyes when I had a closer look – you might expect to see someone like Mundy doing something like this for charity, but there were three huge stars there, giving it loads. It really added to the Christmas Eve atmosphere.”
Many fans filmed the surprise appearance and posted videos of the buskers on YouTube.com.
