Morrissey plans Dublin dates

Morrissey is to play two shows at the Ambassador in Dublin on October 2 and 3.

Tickets are due to go on sale shortly.

The former Smiths frontman's comeback gigs at the Royal Albert Hall in September are already sold out.

Morrissey plays the London venue on September 17 and 18.

They will be his first UK gigs in three years.

Morrissey's set at recent shows in the US have included Smiths classics such as Meat Is Murder and There Is A Light That Never Goes Out, along with songs from his early solo career such as Suedehead and Everyday Is Like Sunday.
