The Olympia gig on the RTF tour is one of my all-time favourites. Will definitely try and make it over for this.

TBH I've completely gone off THB in the last couple of years but I can't be missing this. Do we think demand for tickets will be more/less than a regular Manics gig?

I really think there will be no issues with tickets, especially not for the Dublin dates. More issues with touts rather than general man on the street demand.

In for this one, free accommodation and the only gig on a weekend but will still be a problem booking the day off for work.

I went for the Rewind the Film tour. Most places I found were expensive but I ended up in a very cheap hostel, 13 Euros or something I think. Fucking grim though, two toilets between over 100 people!

It's probably a bit dearer on a Saturday night but you would get a decent single room for 40 euro.

Doubt tickets will be a problem. Don't think the PFAYM gig sold out, but the RTF gig did I think. I'll be getting mine at 9am just to be sure anyway.

Hoping to make this one accomodation permitting. First trip to Dublin so fingers crossed.

Depends on what you're looking for.

I stay in Dublin hotels a fair bit for gigs and business so I've been everywhere on the scale.

Except hostels.

Hostels in Dublin (the ones I stayed in during my youth at any rate) are shit.

I stayed at the Kinlay House in Dublin on Lord Edward St in 2007, basically next door to the Olympia. Was less than £20 and clean enough.
