Expect the "house full" signs to go up early on May 2 when the Violent Femmes descend on the Dublin Olympia.

Second only to The Pixies in the legendary American indie band stakes, the trio will be unleashing such classics as 'Gone Daddy Gone', 'Add It Up', 'Blister In The Sun' and 'Prove My Love'.

Tickets are priced from €32.50 and are on sale now from the usual Ticketmaster outlets.
