VELVET REVOLVER To Perform At Grand Opening Party For Hard Rock Cafe In Times Square

August 11, 2005

VELVET REVOLVER will perform at the grand opening party for the new Hard Rock International flagship cafe in the center of Times Square on Saturday, September 17.

Hard Rock International will be moving from its original location on 57th Street to occupy the former site of the historic Paramount Theater. As part of the move, Hard Rock will be transferring music memorabilia from its unparalleled collection, including priceless pieces from THE BEATLES, LED ZEPPELIN, NIRVANA, BILLY JOEL, THE RAMONES and ELVIS PRESLEY.

The new Hard Rock Cafe New York will officially open at its new location at 1501 Broadway upon the smashing of more than 100 Gibson guitars, branding the moment as the World's Largest Guitar Smash. The historic guitar smash and opening of the Times Square cafe will kick off a month-long celebration, which will include rockin' concerts and special events, as well as a grand opening party, featuring a live performance by VELVET REVOLVER. The grand opening celebration will benefit Peace Games, a non-profit organization dedicated to ending the trend of violence in the U.S. by teaching children to become peacemakers in their schools and communities.
