After winning over the crowd at Belfast's Botanic Gardens yesterday (23 August) and aiming to do the same at Lansdowne Road tonight, Scottish indie-popsters Franz Ferdinand have already made plans to return to the Emerald Isle.

They'll be playing The Point in Dublin on November 18 and Belfast's Odyssey Arena on November 19 as part of a UK and Irish tour in support of their forthcoming album You Could Have It So Much Better...With Franz Ferdinand which is released on October 3.
Support for both days comes from cool-band-of-the-moment The Editors and up'n'comers The Rakes - a triple bill indeed.
