Rocker Loves LaRocca

February 29th, 2008 by nay

La Rocca live the American dream, packing their guitars on their back and hitching their way to LA. Kinda.

They finish their Irish tour tomorrow night at Crawdaddy. I’d be there but for the Irish Blog Awards *chomps nails*

Can I just take this opportunity to wish everyone the best of luck. You’re all brilliant writers, astute, sharp and a barrel of laughs.  All winners in my eyes.

Seeyiz in the cells!

New Flickr Set

February 18th, 2008 by nay

Thought I’d mention a new Off Her Rocker Flickr photo account focussing exclusively on Irish bands and gigs. Check out a slideshow or older albums of international live music and photoshoots.

The Library Bar can’t wait to have Ham Sandwich back….

These are the pics they tried to ban!

Well, not really. The photos were deemed unsuitable for the nature of their interview in the new issue. Carry The Meek, the band’s debut album, hits the shelves tomorrow and everyone was in a good mood but Darcy couldn’t make it for photos so there was no point lining them up for sombre portraits. Much better my way :p

We Should Be Deadly

February 4th, 2008 by nay

Last Friday I met the very giggly bunch known as We Should Be Dead in the Library Bar for a photoshoot. Their self-titled album was released the same day and they were in good spirits so we ran amok a bit, I wanted them to climb into a laundry trolley and run screaming through the corridors but was distracted by the tiniest hotel lift in existence, which we commandeered for some old-fashioned uproar.

Later that night they played Crawdaddy. What a gig!  I’ll post the photos here tomorrow. The photoshoot pics are for the mag so I can’t release them yet. Another shoot with Ham Sandwich tomorrow means I might just get those laundry-cart snaps…
