Vallenfyre
Sisters of Mercy (missed Eldritch when he played a while back)
Paradise Lost (specifically headlining in Dublin - seen 'em in the UK)
Corrosion of Conformity (with Pepper Keenan)
System of a Down
Bjork
Zoe Keating (saw her once as support for Amanda Palmer - would love to see her doing a headline show)
Oomph
I'd love to have seen Type O Negative, but alas, that's not going to happen now that Pete's dead.
Aerosmith would probably be good fun...they're playing in Toronto while I'm there but the tickets are extortionate. I'm not that keen to relive my teenage years. :P0 -

The Offspring
Panic(!) at the Disco
Bouncing Souls
Sum 41
Mayday Parade
^^ All bands I had tickets to see, but then the music festival collapsed (Pukkelpop), Sum 41 pulled out at the last minute (Kerrang Tour) and Mayday were supposed to support YMA6 but they couldn't reschedule when the gig was postponed so I'm still waiting
Set Your Goals
Allison
Oreskaband
Feeder
Biffy Clyro
Nickelback (I know all their radio songs sound the same, but I reckon they'd be fun in an arena)
And then there's plenty of bands that I'd like to see again too!

To name a few
R.A. haven't played headline shows here in a few years - the scene's too small for what it costs to get here so they often skip over us on European tours. I went to Birmingham to see them last year and ended up meeting two of them on the street there. Best €50 Ryanair flight ever :P They are one of the best bands I've seen live though (have seen them twice), so if you get a chance, definitely go see them!

Didnt they sell out the Academy last time they were here? Think i was un-decided about going at that time . Im raging they keep skipping over here(but can understand Travel cost etc may not make it feasable)0 -

I was at that show, I'm not sure if it was fully sold out - but even if it was, that's only 600-800 people. The show in Birmingham was a 3000+ capacity venue and they were playing that size room every night, so I guess it mightn't be worth all the extra travel costs and currency change for a venue a quarter the size of what they play every other night!
Zack (guitarist) was telling us that they were surprised that they weren't booked for Dublin (though I suppose he had to say that :pac:). They played Oxegen in 2010 too, but I couldn't get off work that weekend to go. Maybe on the next tour *crosses fingers*0 -

I caught some of their set at Oxegen while i was on my break onsite . They had a decent size crowd (not massive mind you) . Yea i agree the fact they were playing 2000/3000 min capacity venues in UK why would they drop over here for a 800(max gig)
EDIT: Now ive just realised i have seen Rise Against ha stupid me , but would rather see them at a proper gig or a festival that would suit them like Reading/Download0 -
