BERLIN – Fans hoping to glimpse U2’s free concert celebrating 20 years since the Berlin Wall fell were outraged Thursday to find that a nearly 6-1/2-foot (2-meter) high metal barrier was installed to block the view for those without tickets. Both Berliners and tourists alike saw the irony in building a wall around a concert dedicated to the wall that already has come down.

Bizarre.  Aside from the irony, it’s not like they lose revenue by letting outsiders see/hear the concert.  (I’m confident it will sell out either way.)
