    Ooooooh citing... anyway of circumventing the dastardly ticketmaster booking fee though? Otherwise, €35 for a band as good as National is a steal!

    Ah you can hardly begrudge it being in Cork seeing as the vast majority of good gigs are usually in Dublin!

    Definitely making my way to this. Olympia 2 years ago was one of my favourite gigs ever. Hopefully they'll debut some new material as well - new album due out some time later in the year.

    They got announced for Bonnaroo in mid-June yesterday so I reckon there's a good chance as it's obvious they'll be on the festival circuit!

    I only got tickets this week to see them in Brooklyn June 5th. Meaning that Cork will be my 10th concert of The National! Can't wait.

    Very exciting news. Hoping to try and take a trip down to cork and see them. Saw them in the Olympia during all the snow a couple of years back which was an incredible gig. Has anyone been to other gigs in the Marquee? A few posters elsewhere are saying it's a terrible venue sound wise. Would it be like the one they sometimes have in Phoenix park for medium sized gigs? Cheers

    I wonder if they manage to sell out the Marquee in Cork, will they come back and play the o2 in Dublin later in the year when the summer festival season is over?

    They'd struggle to fill it but I reckon they will push for the bigger venues with the new album. Any other venue is Dublin is too small at this stage.

    Fair play to Cork though, nice selection of gigs down that direction this summer!

    Nope its the only Irish appearance as part of their June & July tour so still hope for a gig in Dublin later in the year.
    This Harmonic gig is one of a handful of European shows the band are playing in June and July and the band’s only Irish show this summer.

    I completely missed that - misread it as it being their only Irish date of the year!

    Wonder if that means they'll play another one..

    Not sure about the next biggest venue in Dublin by capacity but what about somewhere like the Grand Canal instead of 02?

    Looks like Dirty Projectors for support.

    Edit: Looks like it's just up to Bonaroo, so probably not here.

    With an album confirmed now for May, I'd say they'd fill the o2 later in the year, even after the gig in cork, once some of the singles start doing the rounds...

    What a dickish thing to say. If you do so again in that manner you'll be banned.

    This matter is dealt with, there's no need for anyone else to respond to the above post.

    Thanks.

    Hard to gauge. If it was Dublin, it would sell out quick. Fact that it's in Cork would mean it won't sell out as quick. Capacity seems to be 4000 or 5000

    No, don't think there's a presale. Not sure how fast it'll sell, guess if you really want to go it's better to be over-cautious and book tickets asap just in case they do!

    Their first two Olympia dates in 2010 basically sold out right as they went on sale. Think the third one took a few hours/days to sell? You wouldn't know with it being in Cork though.
