Never fails to be one of the greatest weekends of the year. Nice bit of sunshine and many a secret performance. As always, these images are for sale in lovely big prints or electronically. I also have many more to choose from so drop me a line if you fancy.

Castlepalooza 2010

Posted in Adebisi Shank, Attention Bebe, codes, Festivals, Fionn Regan, Funeral Suits, James Mc Morrow, Le Galaxie, Mercury Rev, Steve Reddy, The Cast Of Cheers with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on August 3, 2010 by RM

Equal parts music and mayhem. The best Irish festival by far. Can’t fault it in any way… although it could have gone on for a few more days and I still wouldn’t have wanted to leave.

A very special musical nod must be given to Attention BeBe… epic sets, including the one on the double decker bus.

If anyone would like to use the pix then please be my guest. All’s I ask that you keep the tag line intact (I’m a self promotion ho).
