The Snot boys are leaving for tour today…and we already miss them!!! They are probably coming to a town near you very soon - so check out the dates below and plan accordingly It’s been 10 years since they’ve been on the road…and after last weeks Key Club show, it’s clear that Tommy Vext is a perfect match for the well oiled SNOT machine. Have fun and be careful!
Some of our most favorite Roxy moments have been created by the band “Clutch”…and while, this time around it’s not exactly Clutch per se…we fully support any side projects that might arise from their genius brains. With that being said, join us for THE BAKERTON GROUP and celebrate that you survived another work week. Hooray!

In what can only be explained as a strange coincidence, on what would be Lynn Straits 40th birthday - today SNOT returns with their first new track in 10 years aptly titled, “THE BAND PLAYS ON.” Armed with new singer Tommy Vext and the rest of the original members, the band is confident that SNOT will once again be a force to be reckoned with! Head over to the new official site for a free download of the new single, and let us know what you think. Check them out in their big return at the Key Club on OCTOBER 10,2008- click here for tickets!
Our in house photog, Erik Voake, has done it again. Check out the first of many amazing shots of Demi Lovato’s first Roxy performance. Oh yeah as a little bonus we also threw in a Jonas bros pic from the show as well.
>(Sorry, had too.) Our boys in Shuvel rocked the house Friday night. Ryan, Carlos and Issac you rock! Thanks guys and thanks to all the other bands as well. Death Pilot, Plastik and Maleva. Great to see a bunch of old friends and make some new ones.

This month will be hard to beat. With so many legendary artists gracing The Roxy stage, it was very hard to find just 10. Camp Freddy had by far the most added to the group, mostly do to having 5 shows this month and a lot of amazing trigger happy photographers. Russell Brand also had many to choose from but i felt this one had special meaning because our own sound guy lee was in the mix. My personal favorite picture, not just because it’s so awesome, but that the Foxboro Hot Tubs was my favorite show in a long time. Again a huge thank you for all who added your pictures to The Roxy Theatre Group on flickr. We now have over 2500 photos and 120 members in just over a month. Keep it coming, Click click!

The month of Camp Freddy Mayhem has become this Rock N Roll machine that has been the talk of the town! It’s taken over like no one could have ever imagined. It started off great as we were so excited to be able to hold one of our Roxy contests to find the lucky openers - which allowed local bands to actually warm up the stage for Freddy. What a great opportunity. And now, we’ve had FIVE sold out shows - countless special guests - and killer set lists. Over the past 4 weeks, we’ve seen Tommy Lee, Terry Nunn, Chester of Linkin Park, Brandon Boyd of Incubus, Chino of the Deftones, Jerry Cantrell, Lemmy Kilmister, B-Real and Sen Dog, Tiffany, Metal Skool, Cory from Slipknot/Stone Sour, Tom Morrello as well as our house favorite Mark McGrath - to name a few! On top of the Sex Pistols Paul Cook, Glen Matlock and Steve Jones and GnR legends Duff and Slash! Insanity. We hate to rub it in, because the Freddy Finale tonight is of course sold out - but for the lucky, this show will take the cake! Every Thursday the chaos starts early - so make sure you stay tuned as Nic and I twitter the day away. We’ll keep you updated as always, on all the nitty gritty secrets. Thanks to all the guests and the guys - as well as the fans who have made the Roxy their nightlife staple for the month. We hope to see you all soon.
The Metal Skool(Steel Panther) guys made a welcomed return to The Roxy to do a cameo with Camp Freddy. It rocked.
Morello also had a blast as we did witnessing his greatness.

Me, Mark and Chino enjoying good times in The Roxy Kitchen.
