Hotpress.com can exclusively reveal that Moby will be playing an Irish date during the summer.

"The precise details can't be announced yet, but he's definitely doing a show here in support of his new album, 18, which is being released in May," confirms a spokesperson.

Last week say the boy Melville in Los Angeles where he's been assembling the video for the lead single, 'We Are All Made Of Stars'.

A veritable celebfest, it finds him hanging out with Tommy Lee, Dave Navarro, Thora Birch, Corey Feldman and Gary "Arnold from Diff'rent Strokes" Coleman. Oh yeah, and shagging a robot.

"This was simulated," he maintains. "Really. Actual penetrative intercourse with a robot would be painful, I imagine."

Along with the title-track, 18's other cuts are 'In This World', 'In My Heart', 'Great Escape', 'Signs Of Love', 'One Of These Mornings', 'Another Woman', 'Fireworks', 'Extreme Ways', 'Jam For The Ladies', 'The Day Before My Birthday', 'Sleep Alone', 'At Least We Tried', 'Harbour', 'Look Back In', 'The Rafters' and 'I'm Not Worried At All'.
