Still racing of adrenaline from her solo performance at the 20/20 photographic exhibition, Amy McGarrigle will join her band-mates at the Empire Music Hall, Belfast, for the launch of their E.P. ‘What I Remember’.
The band, Boathouse, were formed in 2006 and through progressively gigging, their music as gotten better and fanbase, bigger. The EP contains [...]


20/20

May 27th, 2008

What Belfast lacks, the Oh Yeah Music Centre hopes to inject with full force.
After various drunken discussions, big ideas were turned into reality in the form of the Oh Yeah Project, which seeks to address the imbalance of talent versus facilities that had previously existed in Belfast.
The vast talent to come from Northern Ireland [...]

As the title suggests, I spent all day yesterday rejuvenating the photoblog, something I have been meaning to do for many months now. It is finally done, and it wasn’t even has hard as I thought it would be.

After much [...]


dublin to cork – my 2 cents

May 21st, 2008

Something was mentioned on Twitter (once again) about a photomeet in the city I have been dying to visit for quite a while; Cork. Donncha suggested a photowalk in Doneraile Park in June, he’s available on 7th, 14th and 28th. But then he says this park is quite a distance from the Cork (city).

May 16th, 2008

Tomorrow is the Dublin Photomeet that has been hyped around the Irish blogosphere over the last few weeks. This will be the second photomeet I’ve attended in the last 2 weeks, and another planned in Belfast next week, then another in June…
