Wizard Rock and Wizrocklopedia Make Entertainment Weekly

up close

Your Wizard Rock Photo of the Day, brought to you by bluerose726. JK Rowling is named “Entertainer of the Year” in the November 30th issue of Entertainment Weekly. Included in their article is a section entitled “What She Hath Wrought,” which mentions wizard rock as “A magical music genre. Check out the exhaustive wizrocklopedia.com for an overview,” along with a photo of Harry and the Potters. Another photo is available here. Thank you, Sarah, for getting the pictures online so quickly!

We’re thrilled to see wizard rock make it into this amazing magazine and are honored to have EW consider us “exhaustive”! It’s like an early yuletide gift for everyone. Check out more of our favorite wizard rock photos.

    The article on JKR was so lovely.

  14. Jace Avatar

    Melissa, I can try and get a picture of it or something to you soon

  15. Camie Avatar

    Melissa.. I could flat out type it up for you if you wanted.
    Its a sidebar from the main article, and you have a small quote about the Tales of Beetle the Bard at the end of it.
    its really awesome YAY

    oh and I am scanning the entire article after class tonight when I can get to the library and use the good scanners they have there.

    I just saw the full page image. Anyone know if “butterbeer” tastes as awful as it sounds?

  20. Melissa Avatar

    Thakn you Sarah! I’m always concerned I’ve said something really stupid. That wasn’t as cringeworthy as most.

    Again great congratulations to Wizrock for a well deserved honor!

  21. Jace Avatar

    the butterbeer i’ve had was made with jones cream soda and butterscotch shnaaps

    and it was amazing

  22. Camie Avatar

    I just want to say inappropriate things, not on topic at all.

It’s always great when certain parts of the fandom get recognized like Wizard Rock so that people know that it isn’t some meaningless obession–it’s so much more. 🙂 Keep on Wrocking as always!
