The Boomtown Rats have announced a Dublin date later this year.
Bob Geldof and his band will play the Olympia Theatre on December 6th.
“Age, curiosity and cash prompted our interest in getting together again. Curiosity about each other and what we did together in the ’70’ and 80’s,” Bob said.

“Curiosity about those songs that seem to have endured and the music and band that powered them.”
“When I sang again Rat Trap, Looking After No 1, Mondays, Someone’s Looking At You, Banana Republic, She’s So Modern etc, there was nothing I would change. On re-hearing, on re-singing them I understood that they could have been written yesterday,” he added.
The group which formed in the 70’s played Electric Picnic this year and are following that performance up with one gig in the capital.
Tickets for the concert go on sale on September 24th from Ticketmaster.
