Austin, Texas has everything you need to have a good time. Music, beer, BBQ and over 80 stages will be rocking it for five days for the annual SXSW Music Festival when it kicks off tomorrow. I’m heading down there to cover the madness so check KROQ.com for updates, rock shots, shots of BBQ, shots of beer and shots of shots.
During the festival downtown Austin closes it’s major roads to cars…
Seeing Travis Barker and A-Trak at The Roxy was by far the coolest thing I have seen all year, and I see a lot of cool shit on a daily basis. It blew my mind. For one thing, the energy in that room was gasmic, meaning it could easily evoke a “gasm” of some sort. The attitude in the room overall was, “f*ck it! we’re gonna have a gooooood time tonight!”.
It felt crazy good walking into The Roxy that night. Crazy good.
I am a latin girl so I was born with rhythmic bones that can shake and shimmy with the best of them , but at the Travis and A-Trak show, I busted out moves I didn’t even know I had. I was dancing from the second I walked in there and hell! I’m dancing now just sitting here writing about it. Throw in Kid Cudi and Lil’ Jon and we had ourselves a house party.
It is worth mentioning that I was rocking out next to a herd of “fist bumpers” that were shipped to the Sunset Strip straight from the Jersey Shore. They were a bonus. Also a bonus….
A-Trak is smoking hot!

If you were driving by The Roxy and noticed a line of people dressed up as zombies, chances are you were one of the many cars snarled up, trying to see what was going on.
Last Saturday there wasn’t a big budget movie being filmed or some silly attempt to break the dance record to MJ’s “Thriller”. It was in fact Los Angeles’ indie-pop group Saint Motel having their 2nd Annual Zombie Prom!
KROQ Locals Only presented Saint Motel’s Zombie Prom at The Roxy to a sold out crowd of undead fans complete with fake blood and torn prom attire. Long lines formed early down the Sunset Strip to see Links, Young The Giant (formerly The Jakes), Chasing Kings and of course, Saint Motel.
Check out the video recap from of the show by clicking more. You’ll definitely want to attend next year’s event.

Take a pre-Valentines Day bite out of your honey this Saturday at The Roxy. Saint Motel will be rocking the house and would appreciate any fake blood and zombie like costumes.

I’ve played The Briggs a lot on KROQ Locals Only Sunday nights at 9pm but the reason I’m playing this particular song today is because of a little blog post Nicole Alvarez posted last week with regards to a new theme song for Los Angeles. Read the original post here. There were lots of great songs mentioned in response including The Briggs.
This is awesome. Period. Friday night at The Roxy, Corey Taylor, lead singer of Slipknot, jumped on stage with Camp Freddy and Jerry Cantrell for a damn good rendition of “Would” by Alice In Chains. Pretty bad ass:
Dangerbird recording artist and New Moon soundtrack alumn, Sea Wolf, will play The Roxy tonight. more
It is with great sadness that I say goodbye to The Key Club. The Key Club will close it’s doors this Sunday forever and take with it the remains of our hearing, morals, livers, blood, sweat, and tears.
Last night around 10pm, L.A.-based Twitter followers of Them Crooked Vultures got a bit of a shock: “Surprise Eve of Release Show at the Roxy.”
