A cool snap of Rockin’ Kev from the Evening Herald dating back to 1976.
The text reads:
Dublin’s only genuine Teddy Boy, Kevin Connolly, keeps on rocking at the R. & R. Disco.
I had the pleasure of meeting Kevin at the Magnet reunion earlier this year. He’s still as sharply dressed as ever!





i remember seeing kev getting on the number 37 bus on blackhorse avenue in dublin 7 on a regular basis when i was going to school, that was back in 1975. he must have lived near me as i always saw him around the area. he always looked a cool dude and a sharp dresser. when i was a teenager back then he gave off an air of danger.
bitzy

In The 80s Kev ran a rock and roll night on Capel Street , in John Treacys pub, does anyone know of any photos from then , ?
