Blondie announce December date for Dublin

Men of a certain age will be out in force on December 20 when Blondie play a pre-Christmas visit to the Dublin Olympia.

Despite being within touching distance of her Senior Citizen Bus Pass, Debbie Harry remains the archetypal rock goddess and belter-outer par excellence of classics like 'Atomic', 'Call Me', 'Heart Of Glass' and 'Hanging On The Telephone'.

It's not just exercise in nostalgia, though, with last year's The Curse Of Blondie album demonstrating that their pop instincts are as keen ever.
