Query: J-rock Bands In Ireland

sorry if this is the wrong place to put this
i am the administrator of j-rock ireland. as some of you may know, j-rock is becoming increasingly popular in the west. and many bands are now touring internationally.
one of the most well-know acts is dir en grey
i am in correspondence with the manager of the dir en grey street team: uk. at present she is compiling a list of venues in hopes of convincing diru to tour the uk. i have spoken with her and if i get a list of possible venues in dublin to her, along with a confirmation that people will attend the lives, dublin could be included on this list.
i am asking if anyone here would attend a dir en grey live [no maybes; yes or no, please. the band needs to sell tickets]
also if you could suggest some suitable venues that would be helpful [small venues please, i seriously doubt they'll sell out the RDS]

will crawdaddy close the bar in order to take under 18s? i've been looking for a good venue but loads wont let under 18s in. which is useless for diru
i'm trying to get 250-300 yes. diru only booked about 200 tickets for their first uk gig so that amount would be perfect. if it means going to central bank with petitions i dont care Dx
