Ireland Acoustic / Pop Venues

Seamus Kennedy suggested that folks here would have some good suggestions, so here goes...

I'm traveling to Ireland July 17 through 31, and am into original acoustic and pop music.

I also like Trad. Irish music, but you can't hardly walk over there without stumbling into that :-)

Anyway, I'm looking for suggestions for venues to hit.

I'll definitely be in Dublin a few days, and know of:
The Loft (Cork)
Whelans (Dublin, 50/50 in my three visits)
Eamon Dorans (Dublin, that side-loft area for 20 listeners is good)
[mumble-mumble-gob] (Galway)*

* The name appeared in print only in Irish, but I was told by staff that it translated to "Slap in the mouth"

I appreciate any suggestions!
