Yes, Hall & Oates, Daryll Hall and John Oates, the writers and performers behind bona fide pop classics like ‘I Can’t Go For That’, ‘Out Of Touch‘, ‘Maneater’, ‘Private Eyes’ and ‘You Make My Dreams Come True’ and the biggest selling duo in US chart history are landing in Dublin for a gig in the Olympia Theatre as part of their European tour on July 15th.
Tickets are €33.50 on sale this Friday from 9am. I can go for that.
Here’s Cork’s Deady doing an a capella version of ‘I Can’t Go For That’.

That’s very cool.
In a very loose connection, Daryl Hall is great mates with musical genius/producer Todd Rundgren.
Will Todd ever play Ireland, bloody unlikely >:(
Daryl & Todd sing Can we still be friends. See Vanilla Sky & Dumb and Dumber soundtracks.
