Photos : The Music Show
The weekend just past saw HotPress and 2FM take over the RDS for a music extravaganza of live performances, seminars and workshops. I was hanging around the live stage, and shot The Blizzards, Declan O’Rourke, Cathy Davey, Ham Sandwich, Fionn Regan, Jaded Sun, The Coronas, Republic of Loose and Damien Dempsey.

Fuck yeahh 
What do you think of this thumbnail view for multiple pics? Any thoughts?
thumbnails are cool so you can see em all in one go! but it’d be nice of they were a little bigger once you do click on the one ya wanna have a closer look at! …am i being too picky? Lovely pics though, But next time you shoot the Blizzards could you use a gun? too picky again?!
oops way harsh! i’m sure they’re lovely guys… but who won the new band slot in the end?!
Hmmm, I hadn’t thought about making the full-sizers bigger than 400px. Goodly idear!
I know 6000 females who’d shoot YOU for saying that!
(DC Tempest!…www.myspace.com/dctempest)
the only thing i like about ROL is the guys hoody…
No DC Tempest! I seen these guys and they were possibly the best act of the weekend! Never heard them before! No pics???
Toni…the crowd LOVED them! It was like being at a venue, really bouncing
You’ll hafta check out Mad Hatter in the new ish, I took a moody shot of him 2 minutes after coming off-stage and we’re running it. Full hoody action!
Sgt-Hope: My knees were buckling in the photography seminar when DC Tempest were on. Trust me, I’d loved to been there :p
u want me to mail the the dc tempest pix doll?
Love to see some DC Tempest pictures. They really did get the crowd going, there is a seriously great vibe from their tunes. Excellent energy. I’m going to have to go see them in Whelans and see a full show.
Johnny C, Rufus and Nay: I would really appreciate it if you could send me some photos of DC Tempest or even if you have some up on your sites send me the link! I think they are my new favourite band!
Pics on the way, Sgt-Hope Your Horses!
Cheers Nay! I’m looking forward to seeing them!
Hey, are any of you going to see them in Whelans tomorrow night?
Should be a great show, Red Kid are supporting them aswell so well worth the €10 in my opinion!
[...] Tempest photos by the massive Medjber added due to staggering demand: Sgt Hope and Johnny C good as battered down the doors of HP [...]
Cheers folks! There are some cool pics in there! Shame there is none of the drummer, he was fantastic! Great band! Hope to see you folks in Whelans tomorrow night!
Drummers are like John the Baptist : shoved to the back while Jesus hogs the limelight….
