So Interpol have announced their extensive European tour and have left out a date in dublin despite quite a few dates in the UK.
Bit of a let down really considering the reaction they got the last time they played.
Interestingly the admin on their board tells people not to post messages asking them to play in their country because the band dont read their message board and also dont ask about shows that havent been announced because that is the whole point of the live section.
Now in fairness, how many bands actually keep their tour section up- to-date. Bit c*cky from the Admin readly

It could be that they've yet to decide on a venue. Considering how well the Village gig went I'd be very disapointed if they didn't come at all. Is the album out and moreso, is it good?

is it the smoking ban? im sure thats why velvet revolver (best live rock band in the world right now) didnt hit these shores.
I'm begining to think we're gonna be viewed as worse than the danes, the norweigans etc. by future ignorant but cool bands.
except for out door gigs.
for now.

I think Punchbowl is correct. I've talked to a fair few people that were at the village gig and not one of them said they didn't enjoy it so I'd imagine that they'll get a lot of repeat business, I'd certainly go to see them again, and it's not as though they were playing to a bad crowd, the audience were really into them that night.
The question is has their audience grown to such a degree that it warrents booking somewhere like Vicar Street or should they stick to a smaller venue.
