June Boom! The Sunset Strip was on fire this month. SSMF, Crystal Castles sold-out midnight show, TRVS+DJAM w/ Too Short and (last but not least)the return of Shuvel, all made June a hit. Coming off of May, we worried if we would be able to keep the great photos coming. We were not dissapointed. Great job everyone! A Special “what up!” goes out imnotuna, Never Cool in School, totallylikeduh! and letsflyawaythistime, all who are contributing members of The Roxy Theatre Flickr Group. Nice work, keep it coming. If you want to shoot at The Roxy contact us at theroxy@mac.om and we will try to accommodate you the best we can. Thanks again to everyone who added over 1000 shots to the group this month. Hit us with your best shot! Fire Away!!!

We’re still recovering from the Crytsal Castles mania - and apparently MTV is too!
Check out the review of the show!
Laws of economics (stay with me here) state that scarcity creates value, and Crystal Castles’ anonymity as the anti-rockstars only made me desperately want to know everything about them. You’ll be hard-pressed to find clear photos of either member, they shoot down any suggestions of fame, and they always understate their own popularity.
But on the other hand, they did add another Roxy show two nights later due to overwhelming demand, and they are also the newest group to enter the ring up against the big record labels. You can find a full quality, fully tagged and fully free mp3 of “Crimewave” for download on Nine Inch Nails’ Web site. After my encounter with Crystal Castles, it’s clear that they’re a shining example of a band that is truly in it for the music. Expect much more from Crystal Castles in the upcoming months, because whether they like it or not, they’re going to be huge.
We have received some really great entries from all you die hards looking for some VIP treatment! The show of course, is tonight so vote vote vote! Poll’s will close at 5pm so stay tuned! Click the contest tab for all the info! And as a reminder, the grand prize is prettttyyyyy sweet! We’de like to thank the Dim Mak folks for helping us rock out this 2nd show and contributing some pretty sweet shwag.
I think the only thing left to say…is see you tomorrow at our MIDNIGHT Crystal Castles show!! Last night was a crazy night…a packed show, insane energy, and one of the hottest bands on stage - we can’t wait to do it again! Also, stay tuned as we post some of our favorite contest entries- almost time to get your vote on! And if you haven’t submitted yet, what are you waiting for!
As always, thanks to our house photog Erik Voake for capturing the moment
Crystal Castles is getting ready to take over the Roxy and we’re very excited! They are kicking off the first sold out show tonight - and we were happy to announce earlier in the week that a SECOND show had been added for Friday. We can’t encourage you enough to get tickets SOON - thru the box office at 310 278 9457. Also, so far we’re gotten some amazing contest entries - and remember, the lucky winners will really do it up in style at Friday’s show (check out the details here)! Show us what you’ve got!

MSTRKRFT is back tomorrow - shooting a hot new video and putting on a special show! MSTRKRFT always brings the hot party, so make sure you come down and join us. Doors are at 10pm, so come down early to make sure you get it!
Check them out at on of their past Roxy performances!
We were just as bummed as you all were when the original Crystal Castles show was postponed - but we can’t be happier to have them here June 11th. They have DJ’d their way into our hearts and we know this show is going to be amazing. Obviously you know that too, as the show is sold out. And a reminder, if you held on to your original tickets from March - we can’t wait to see you! Those tickets will be carried over, no problemo.
If you ask me, going out on a Sunday night is a perfect way to usher in the work week. AND most of us have Monday off- perfect! Lucky for you, we have legendary ?uestlove ready to spin the night away TOMORROW. This will be a hot night on the town.
Now that we have started our own Flickr group, The Roxy Theatre, anyone can add their photos taken at The Roxy or On The Rox to share with the world. So far we have received over 1500 photos from over 100 members. At the beginning of each month we will post our favorites in our “Shots From The Top” post. Keep shooting and post often, thanks to all who contributed.

It’s that time of year again……COACHEllA TIME! We’re a little spoiled here in So-Cal, because it is always a guarantee that the hottest festivals will pass thru town, but NOTHING is more anticipated than Coachella. As usual, the lineup is huge - who are you looking forward to seeing? Who are the bands that you think are ones NOT to be missed? Is rock taking over this year? The DJ scene? Or is Prince going take the cake? Let us know what you’re into. Continue reading ‘Coachella Coachella Coachella’
