They will have known about it if they went to buy tickets at any time in the last few months. And the first show didn't sell out so the press release it just a total and utter fabrication to try and sell some tickets.
I think they over-estimated it by putting on two Dublin dates. If they'd made the second night a Belfast concert then they could have sold both but I know at least ten people (and if I know ten people who won't do it then I reckon there are plenty more from the north who won't be doing it either) who aren't going to travel down the the Republic because the tickets are £30 more than the UK dates and staying in Dublin for a night will cost more money than most people would be willing to pay. It is one of the most outrageously expensive cities I've ever been to.
