where do you get dublin tickets?

Ok, I may be being really dense here, but as there's not a link to buy tickets like there is for the other dates, I googled the venue, and can't find the gig in any listings, let alone directions on how to get tickets.

The Olympia does look rather pretty though. Is it reasonably easy to get to? (I've never been to Dublin, I'm thinking of making a trip of it if I get the leave..)

I've spent all evening looking online & no joy. As soon as I find a link I'll put it on my site. (MSM Facebook/Twitter in my sig)

I've made a voodoo doll of WEK. This is his fault. It has to be.

I've still not got over the 'click here' on the Lifeblood tour.

The total lack of information from the band is pissing me off. Hotpress are saying the tickets are onsale tomorrow, but there's no mention of the gig on ticketmaster at all.

I would like to know obviously, but am I the only one really not worrying about tickets? Dublin ones and in general? At the end of the day it's only us crazies who are anxious to find this out, the rest of the general public don't give a shit, they'll go to the gig on a whim. If ye want a ticket, I daresay you'll get a ticket. No sweat. I'm puzzled though at the Ticketmaster thing. I wonder if the Manics have done a deal with someone to sell their Dublin tickets cos Ticketmaster don't have the UK ones either.

Edit- also does the Olympia not have its own website? Lol that's a bit shit! We could ring the Olympia and ask the craic with date of sale I suppose, but I couldn't be bothered.

You're right about there probably not being any problem with getting a ticket Claire. It's just I'm not home again until Monday, so if tickets are onsale tomorrow, I would like to know as i will go and buy them here in Dublin. I wouldn't chance of waiting until Monday.

Aw well here if you're in Dublin Friday morning- go directly to the venue and buy them. Box office opens 10.30am. http://www.mcd.ie/venues/?c=olympiatheatre If you don't get them there, then there's been a major fuck up somewhere! And they won't go on sale at the weekend, so we'll be sweet til Monday.

I'm not being cynical (Well maybe a bit) but i doubt there'll be a mad rush for the tickets so you should all get one no problem.

Cool stuff, suits me fine!

Matthew: It was the lack of information that was getting me worked up more than the chance i won't get hold of a ticket.

Thanks folks, this is all helpful. What is MUCH less helpful is management-sits-in-an office-always-on-holiday-herself woman has refused me any leave for this week. (ongoing saga.) So odds are that I won't be coming to any. This is what happens when they gradually hack their staffing down to the bone. Libraries=good, working for Edinburgh council=bad.
Ah well. Brixton was fab. Still chasing seeing PCP live though

I got some of the leave! I've rung the venue's box office, and got a recorded voice saying they don't actually do bookings on that number, and to ring ticketmaster. Is there really no way of avoiding internet companies who leave it to the last minute to send out tickets for this gig?
