Who's been shooting a music video on Dublin's Samuel Beckett bridge?
Dublin City Council isn't giving much away about a filming project that closed the city's Samuel Beckett bridge for nearly 24 hours.
Gardaí patrolled the south quays on Sunday as film crews worked at the location. A marquee was erected on the bridge.
Pull the Trigger, a music video production company based in Portobello, said it was shooting a video for up-and-coming band 'Summer Nights.'
However, there is no convincing evidence that such a group exists, and there is speculation another, very much more famous band was in town.
Pull The Trigger was previously heavily involved in shooting The Sweetest Thing video for U2 in Fitzwilliam Square in 1998.

Re: #SummerNights shoot in #Dublin yesterday, I'm not convinced. Could it be a feint to keep a low profile e.g. "Rory's First Kiss"? #U2

Sources close to U2 told the Irish Times no members of the band were in Dublin at the weekend.
Scene shots?
