  • Bio

    ....See...here's the thing........... Started in February 2010, Bebop & Rocksteady have had a busy first few months together... ...... Our first gig was a battle of the bands in Portlaoise, the night after our first practice. We played as a two-piece, without Jack but with Shawn Mullen on vocals and guitar. Against all of our expectations we came in first place. This put us through to the national finals of the Irish Youth Music Awards, run by Garageland and Youth Work Ireland. .... At the IYMA finals in Dublin, we fought off 19 acts from all around Ireland to come away as the 'best youth band in Ireland 2010'. .... As a result of this win, we recorded three songs in Ashtown Studios in Dublin to be released in November. The CD will also include 2 other Laois acts, and a number of acts from runner-up county Cork. .... .... If you want to book us for a show or have any other enquiries, drop an email to band.bebopandrock@gmail.com........ Got Bebo? Why not ..try out the skin?.. .. .... .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

    he ran quickly with a sound like raindrops & left his handwriting in all the secret places. I found this one underneath the big yellow rock in the forest. It said this: watch out for the little black elephant, it can smell when you’ve had bananas.

    Are Myspace ever going to stop changing the layout? Every week it's new...soon as ya get the hang of one....grrr!!!
    Well....was debating the student fees thing with some people on facebook....the point I made was that no matter what they do,there are no winners...we all lose..which is true
    Ha ha ha one day they'll figure it out!!
    Oh nice one..ye are being very productive!!! =D

Ha ha ha...well yes the big papers are prob the more important ones...tho nice if the local papers got things right too!!!Hmmm maybe I could be an editor...*strokes chin*

    ha ha ha...indeed...did ye go and march last week? To be honest I knew nothing of it till a day before...shows I ain't a student anymore for real =( we should learn from the French...
    Ha ha it cna be hard to get into the charts here...there's so much crap out there that real music often doesn't cut it....it's a reflection on the sad state of affairs of the music scene in Ireland, and well everywhere!!
    Ha ha ha.....papers fuck up more often than not...I do wonder what do editors get paid to do?If I spot the mistakes,shouldn't they?Ridiculous!!
