Watch: David Guetta creates plenty of MEMORIES at Longitude
There were plenty of MEMORIES to be made at Marlay Park on Saturday evening as David Guetta 'lifted the roof off' in his first gig in the capital since 2012. The French DJ and producer headlined Saturday night at Longitude with Dubliners across the south of the city revealing they could hear his set. It could have been a BAD idea for the artist to return to Dublin having not played for Irish audiences for such a long time but it was no SWEAT, and there was plenty of MAD LOVE for the 57-year-old.
