Have you ever been to the Olympia? I've seen Iron & Wine there a couple of times and it's a nice old building but not one I'd have assumed would have rock acts if I just saw the building itself.

I've been to a few shows at the Olympia and I do like it, even if it's a bit dilapidated
I pulled up front row centre for Chris Rea last year the second the show went on sale, so I think you'll have a good chance of getting a good seat apart from the first three rows being for the meet and greet / soundcheck folk.
The rubbish bit for me is that at that show, it was all sitting, all the time, even on the more upbeat numbers. In addition, there's a big old barrier around three feet from the stage and I don't think it ever comes down. If you're looking for a handshake or a strum of that Model 1, I'd say you'll have a better chance at the Waterfront.
I'm so glad you're coming to Dublin! I would have loved to do the meet and greet in Belfast with you and MadnessFades but Thursday is better for me college-wise. Wish I could go to one of the standing venues in the UK but I probably shouldn't ... I've already pulled the "I'm young and stupid" card a bit too often for this tour!
