The news that ’90s R&B legends TLC were playing Metropolis next month was greeted with many a cheer but it was too good to be true.
Unfortuantely, TLC have pulled out of Metropolis as they’ve had to reschedule their European dates due to a T Boz back injury. Cruel world.
To soften the blow, the festival announced four acts at the same time:
Todd Terje, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Denis Sulta & Mall Grab.
If that’s of no consolation to you, Sunday ticket buyers who wanted to see TLC can get a full refund from Ticketmaster.
If you’re still tempted (and the lineup is solid), Ticket prices for Sunday will remain at €69.50 and will not increase to the final tier of €79.50, as in previous years.
Forbidden Fruit Fruit added some regular visitors to Ireland and some new names to Dublin’s June Bank Holiday music festival for The Royal Hospital from June Bank Holiday Weekend, 3rd – 5th June with the addition of:
Saturday, June 3rd Bonzai 67 (South London grime) Icarus (Bristol electronic duo)
Sunday, June 4th Mura Masa (Live) Denis Sulta
Monday, June 5th More to be announced very soon.
