A step back into Rock and Roll history....

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!

If you love Rock take this tour!

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!

Our tour guide knew his stuff. We got to hear some great stories that related to the sights we were seeing. He had brought pictures and albums along so we could see the artists as he talked about them. We had fun and saw some really rad places!

Very Cool Tour!

First, I can't say enough abour Rock Junket tour guide Bobby Pinn. He was a wealth of knowledge, and was able to share this in a fun and interesting way. My wife and I brought our 20 year old daughter, and there was something for everybody. While some of these sites may have been converted to something different; eg. the Filmore East is now a bank building), Bobby had pictures of it in its heyday, and it seemed to transport us miraculously to that time. And ALWAYS an interesting story about something that had taken place there, or somebody who had performed there...usually in a rather eccentric manner. We had a great day, and look forward to the time when we can return to take some of Rock Junket's new tours! You the Man, Bobby!

Quite enjoyable!

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.

A great tour given with love and enthusiasm for what this area meant and continues to mean to the history of New York! I've already told my friends about this great find and one of my great experiences coming to the Big Apple!!

A great tour and a must for Punk fans!
Sat, Jul 8, 06   11:00 AM cvalentor Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
This was a great tour of the East Village rock scene. Anyone interested in early punk, Ramones, the Warhol scene, CBGB's, or general history of rock in NYC should take this tour. Spans a few generations, and there is something for everyone. I am 46 and I brought my 17 year old niece. We both enjoyed it equally! Also a great chance to see CBGB's before the predicted close. This tour is informative and fun. Don't miss it!

Easy Going, Fun and Informative!

Me and my two teenagers (14 &16) took the walking tour and had a great time. It was our first trip to NY City and I would highly recommend the tour for music fans of all ages. It was a great way to get a taste of all that New York has to offer. My kids are hooked on the Big Apple. We can't wait for our next visit. Thanks!

An Alternative look at NYC
Sat, Jun 3, 06   11:00 AM psforster Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
As a young punk I would have loved to have been in NYC during the hayday of this neighborhood but it is better late than never. I brought my family who was really not familiar with the music scene that was going on in NYC in the late 70's and early 80's. They really enjoyed the tour but probably not to the extent perhaps as I did. I believe all in our party would highly recommend this tour.

Outstanding guide, locale, and music history
Sat, Mar 25, 06   11:00 AM lmccallum Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I recommend this tour for anyone interested in the history of rock/punk/glam music or anyone interested in East Village, counter-culture history. The guide was really well informed and amusing. The sites and stories were absolutely fascinating both for me and my 16-year-old sons. Even my 70+-year-old mom had a good time. Great way to spend a couple of hours, and plenty of cool stores and restaurants to visit afterwards.

Nice to learn some local history.
Sat, Mar 11, 06   11:00 AM scooterlev Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
It was really interesting to learn the history behind some of my old favorite haunts. The first half of the tour was concentrated around the St. Mark's area, with historic details about places that I go to all the time. The second half was in and around alphabet city, and included lots of info about album covers, former artists' residences and so on. The guide, Bobby Pinn, seemed to have endless knowledge of the music world from an insider's perspective, and as a result the tour was geared more toward authentically local hot-spots as opposed to the typical tourist attractions.
