Rock-N-Roll Ribs Anniversary

Hello my lovelies and welcome to Rock-N-Roll Ribs 4 year Anniversary!

Yes, can you believe it’s been four years since Nicko McBrain and company opened this amazing rib joint?  Now I know what you might be thinking, “They do well because one of the owners is the drummer from Iron Maiden.”  And you would be correct in thinking that brings the fans out, but what you don’t know is the food is so phenomenal that you would come anyway.

The place is not large so when the boys throw party of this magnitude it spills over into the parking lot!  You can hang out, eat great food, and enjoy live music from some local bands and Nicko’s very own McBrainiacs!

Everyone at the restaurant is friendly and welcoming and even though it has an overwhelming Iron Maiden theme it is 100% for everyone and anyone who loves ribs, pulled pork, pulled beef, chicken, steak, burgers, or if you are brave enough the cheese filled-bacon wrapped-deep fried-foot long hot dog.

This year NIcko partnered with the S.O.S. Children’s Villages of Florida, a foster care neighborhood in Coconut Creek, Florida, on a tree-lined street with twelve houses, and home to up to seventy-five boys and girls. Their goal is to keep brothers and sisters in foster care together, and they have programs to help transition the 18 and older kids who have been in their care.  Rock-N-Roll Ribs asked on their website for folks to bring new unwrapped toys for kids under 12 and gift cards for teens.  But, Nicko went one step further and broke out poster sized pictures he was signing for a donation to the S.O.S. Children’s Village!  Win-Win for the fans and the kids at S.O.S.!!!

We at Real Memories Photography & Films are truly blessed to have been on board with Rock-N-Roll Ribs since their Grand Opening and are proud to be their official photographer.

Real Memories has also kicked in so if you were at the gig or just want a keepsake visit our gallery page proceeds from your purchase will be donated to the S.O.S. Children’s Villages!!!

HAPPY 4^th ANNIVERSARY ROCK-N-ROLL RIBS CAN’T WAIT FOR NEXT YEAR!

Priscilla and the Jaguar Pack!

 

Nicko McBrain’s Custom Jaguar

If you were designing your own Jaguar what would you do?

Custom seating? Rims?  Steering wheel?

Now what if you were the drummer from Iron Maiden, now what would you do?

Hold that image in your head for a moment…

THIS IS WHAT NICKO MCBRAIN DID!

Ok wipe the drool off your chin. This car was designed for Nicko by Jaguar with special attention to details that scream Iron Maiden.

The Iron Maiden font is everywhere in this car!

an there’s Eddied out Jaguars on the seats, steering wheel, tires (really neat touch)

All I can say is that Real Memories Photography & Films was honored to be there with the man himself to get these shots for Nicko and Jaguar.  And doubly thrilled to have our own Ray Clerie as the first official passenger for a ride with Nicko!

Thanks Nicko you’re one of the great ones!

 

Francesca’s Video Shoot

South Florida is truly lucky to be the hometown to this amazing singing sensation. Francesca has more than a stunning voice she has the presence and poise of a much more seasoned entertainer. Of course it may be genetic (at least partly) her mother is also well known in Palm Beach, if you have had the pleasure of seeing The Monique McCall Band perform you know what I mean. I’m so excited to see what this young lady is going to do!

Legacy Place Food & Wine Experience

How GREAT was the Legacy Place Food & Wine Experience Thursday night?  If you had the pleasure of attending you already know  the street was lined from end to end with food and the wine was flowing all night long.  There was live entertainment on one end with Replay (formerly Entertainment2nite) and a DJ at the other end near the VIP Lounge where the Grey Goose girls were pouring phenomenal cocktails.

Total Wine & More provided a seemingly endless supply and variety of wines and the Legacy Place restaurants supplied delicious bites showcasing various menu items.  It was an absolutely fantastic evening to benefit The American Lung Association.

 

Tampa Chillounge Night

Tampa was THE place to be Saturday April 16^th!  There was something for everyone with Lady Gaga and Jimmy Buffet playing and the extraordinary Chillounge Night event, if you weren’t out and about in Tampa you just weren’t trying.  The Real Memories Photography team was onsite at the Chillounge and had quite an evening.  Let me just say to everyone who had a picture on the Red Carpet – you were amazing, we loved the way you worked the camera!  We also got some incredible shots inside the Chillounge of all the fun and excitement: Samba Parade, Fashion Show, Tango Exhibition, Fireworks, and music by Gabriella and AJ & The Automatics.  But I have to say our favorite moment of the evening was totally unscripted… I don’t know if it’s happened before but it was OUR first Chillounge ENGAGEMENT (she said YES)!  Congratulations and best wishes.  All in all it was an amazing evening.

 

Chillounge Night Orlando 3-26

Real Memories Photography caught some fabulous moments at the Chillounge Night Sarasota earlier this month(check out the video) and we are so excited the Orlando Chillounge Night is this Saturday March 26th.   An amazing outdoor event featuring tasty food, adult beverages(and the regular kind), samba parade, live entertainment, and more.   You do not want to miss this event if you are anywhere near the Orlando area!

East Side Vibes will be amazing you with their unique sound and team Real Memories will be on hand getting some great candid and red carpet photos all evening.

The coolest outdoor lounge party always partners with a local charity and this years Orlando Chillounge will benefit the Fatone Family Foundation.  You know, Joey Fatone of *NSYNC fame, his charity raises funds to help children’s organizations in Central Florida.

This Saturday will be too good to miss… hope to see you there!
