| This was great. I have spent a lot of time in New York, but always did my own thing and never appreciated the stories behind some of the most infamous rock legends. Probably because I didn't know the stories. Going to places like where The Stones "Waiting on a Friend" video was shot took you back and you could actually imagine what it was like to be there. Standing in front of where Warhol held his Electric Circus was so amazing to just sit there and picture these people coming and going and what was happening inside. I always wished I was alive and old enough during that time to be there. Go on this tour, close your eyes and use your imagination. I also suggest if you go on Saturday hit B Bar and Grill on 4th and Bowery. It had an amazing brunch. One of the best Bloody Mary's and Steak Breakfast Burritos I have ever had. Thanks Bobby Pinn!

| This tour was one of the major highlights of our trip to New York! Bobby Pinn who leads the tour is not only an awesome guy, but a wealth of Rock Knowledge! I pride myself on knowing alot of musical history; but I learned so much from just a few hours on this tour! It not only shows you all the musical hot spots, but gives you a great walking class on the Village in New York! I highly recommend that anyone who loves music put this tour at the top of your "to do " list! Rock On! | ||||||

| This Rock 'N' Roll walking tour was fabulous. We booked to do this at the beginning of our 10 day stay and this proved so good because on this walking tour you really get to see some places of rock culture history that brings NYC streets and the East Village to life as you imagine the groudbreaking 60's culture, the birth of punk in the US and so many other great sights & facts. Bobby Pin - our guide - was so friendly, knowledgable and interesting that the whole 2 hours passed by and you felt you could stick around for a few days just living the rock 'n' roll history through his narrative. We even grabbed a beer with him at a local bar after ! Great value and so worthwhile to see the real NYC. If you love music and some of the greatest bands ever, then DO THIS TOUR ASAP. Just hope he goes international and does a similar tour in London. I lived there and I'd still go on it !!! | ||||||

| My girlfriend and I found the rock Junket tour to be surely worthwile and a good way to spend a couple hours on a Sauturday morning. Our guide was good -natured, well-prepared, and entertaining. We appreciated that in addition to the music related sites, he also had plenty to offer on history and background about the East Village in general. And having some vintage pictures and album covers to flesh out the tour sites was a welcome addition. Give it a go ---- there are plenty of worse ways to use a couple hours. | ||||||

| Great tour - we are from Sydney, Australia & wanted to do something a bit different in NY. Bobby knows heaps about the NY rock scene, has a good sense of humour plus you can go with him for a beer at the end of the tour! What more could you want! An offbeat tour that is well recommended. | ||||||

| This tour is awesome. A must for anyone interested in The New York Rock scene. Bobby Pinn was most informative & provided many interesting stories. I was truly dissapointed when it ended!! And what a fabulous way to end by finishing up at CBGB's (RIP). Very insightful and well worth the $25. I would recommend this tour in an instant. Nathaniel, Sydney Australia. | ||||||

ROCK N ROLL HISTORIC JOURNEY

| This was my first visit to NYC and being a rock n roll fan ,what better way to find the rock history of THE LOWER EAST SIDE .If you are into your 70s,80s punk/rock then this tour is for you with loads of history of that era mainly,sadly as explained before the tour starts ,most places have been replaced by more modern,corperate places.But luckerly a few real jems are included but get in quick as prob the most famous place CBGBS is closing in next few months. This is a very relaxed morning,with different ages & types of people & a host who can answer quistions if asked.Well worth checking out even with a hangover from the night before!.Just hope some sites are left for next time i visit NYC | ||||||

| If you're a music junkie, then I totallly recommend this walking tour. I've been to New York several times and consider myself pretty knowledgeable about music and pop culture, but there were several surprises on this tour. For example, one of my favourite NYC restaurants is right across the street from the building that Led Zepplin photographed for the cover of their Physical Graffitti LP, and I'd never made the connection until the tour guide (who was engaging and enthusiastic) pointed it out. Charlie Parker's house (which I'd probably never have found on my own) was another highlight and this bit of jazz history in the middle of a rock-and-roll tour was great! The tour was conducted at a leisurely and mellow pace (good thing if you have hangovers from the night before like we did), and it was a great way to introduce yourself to the layout of the St. Mark's neighbourhood if you've never been. | ||||||

| We attended the Rock and Roll walking tour on 13 May 2006. It was a very interesting way to spend a few hours and recommended to anyone who is into some of the finer music that came out of NYC from the 60s+. The guide Bobby Pinn was a very likeable guy and provided many facts about the East Village and the bands and artists who put the place on the musical map. Whilst many of the original locations may have gone (this was known when booking the tour), others were a pleasant surprise such Madonna's first home in the city, Led Zep classic album cover location, and best of the bunch, CBGB. With the latter expected to close up at the end of the summer, visit it whilst you can. The owner permitted the tour unlimited access to the building for great photo opportunities without the deafening sound of some of the less than classic bands who seem to play the joint nowadays. Overall, this is a reasonably priced and great way to spend a few hours in the East Village. Bobby also provides top tips on some of the bars and clubs to hang out in if sticking around the area or coming back another time. | ||||||

| This was a last minute decision for a group of lads looking for something to do whilst our ladies did the sex in the city tour. We went into it with no expectation and loved every minute of it. The tour was interesting, informative & fun. The guide really held your interest at all times as well. It was great receiveuing a detailed insght into NYC's rich rocknroll heritage! | ||||||

| Bobby Pinn is a really cool guide for this tour of the East Village and the Rock n' Roll sights. If you are any kind of music fan, I feel this is well worth the $20-even if you don't know the music-it's cool to do something different than the typical NYC tours. The weather was beautiful and the sights and culture are so diverse, it really gives you a nice feel of the neighborhood and what it would have been like to be around the East Village in the late '60's and '70's through today. I highly recommend this tour and you will be cooler just for going! Tour ends at CBGB's (which is said to be closing in August-so sad!) | ||||||

A Fantastic Tour

| We both really enjoyed the tour and it was one of the highlights of our visit to New York. Bobby was very knowlegable and the tour was very interesting. This tour is a must if you are interested in The Ramones, Andy Warhol, Iggy Pop, The Clash etc. It was great to see where these people lived, hung out and filmed music videos. The tour ends at CBGBs and you get a chance to go inside, have a drink in the gallery and a look round CBGBs which is the perfect end to a great tour. Bobby really knows his stuff and gives you information you don't get from books. It was a fantastic day out and I would definitely take the tour again if back in New York. | ||||||

| I enjoyed this tour a great deal & recommend it to others. The tour guide did an outstanding job of mixing knowledgeable with humor, and he's very approachable. It was also good that I planned this tour on a nice day, which made the walk more enjoyable. I also like the summary of the tour that was handed out at the end, as well as the fact that the cell. # was listed on the ticket, as I was running a few minutes late & I would've missed the tour had it not been for that.. Overall, all went well & i had a real good time. | ||||||
