    will Mumford & Sons or Florence & The Machine be playing in Ireland anytime soon??

    (i know they both played in Oxegen but i didnt bother go to that as its far too dear and far too much hassle)

    mumford and sons will be at electric picnic. after the reception theyve been getting at festivals so far this summer id expect them to play their own gigs sometime after that though, in a big enough venue too.

    florence already had shows in the olympia so not sure if she'll be back for another while.

    Florence played in May and obviously just in Oxegen, she won't be back for a while.

    Mumford and Sons played the Academy a few months ago. Hopefully they may be back at the end of the year, they were so good at Oxegen

    The title got me thinking that a gig with Mum opening for Flo at The O2 would be nice.

    Mumford and Sons would be a bit big to support Florence wouldn't they?

    The fact they didn't mention a future Irish gig at Oxegen makes me think they haven't got one planned, they only said after the reception they got they would be back. I think an Olympia date at the end of the year would makes sense

    Belfast festival Belsonic has Florence and the Machine, but no word of Mumford and Sons yet.

    Did Mumford and Sons not play the Academy in March?
