The Word on the street, my friends, is that Modest Mouse are playing Dolan's Warehouse in Limerick on December 5th of this year. This is more or less confirmed due to the myspace page of the supporting band "Frightened Rabbit"(Modest Mouse and Frightened Rabbit?). If you would like to verify this amazing news for yourself, you can find it here.
Now, I for one am extremely excited about this news as a long time fan of Modest Mouse. Tickets for the event are not on sale yet but as soon as they are I'm getting one! Modest Mouse are also playing in Galway and Dublin(Or so say the rumours), so if you can't get to Limerick then by the sounds of things its no big deal.
Modest Mouse saw their popularity rise with the release of their last album "We were Dead before the Ship even Sank" which featured the single "King Rat". This was helped by the fact that the music video for the aforementioned single was directed by the late Heath Ledger.
This was also a huge album for fans of The Smiths as the album featured the guitar work of Johnny Marr. Marr joined the band in 2006 and after the "Mouse" released the album "Ship" faded away again only to appear again in the Lineup of "The Cribs"(who?...I know).
So, Marr probably won't feature in the live show, but Fuck it. Modest Mouse are Legends. With classics like "Dashboard", "3rd Planet" and "Float On", you'd be a fool to pass up the opportunity to see these guys Live.
As soon as tickets go on sale I will let you guys know.
But I get mine first.
