| WE LOVED THIS TOUR!! The tour guide was very very informative and knowledgeable. He took his time answering questions and even took pics of us at some of the locations. My husband and I are both musicians, so we appreciated all the work and research put in to make this tour as informative as it was. I especially enjoyed the props out guide brought along (album covers, photos, articles). GREAT!! We would absolutely recommend this tour and when we next visit NYC we will definitely take another one of the tours offereed by the same guide (Beatles walk, etc.). | ||||||

| I bought tickets for this tour because I have been to NY lots of times before and I was looking for something kind of different than the other walking tours offered in the city. The tour guide, Bobby Pinn, is an excellent guide. He really knows about the subjects he talks about and since this is relatively a new tour, there is not too many people and you get the individual feeling. We were 7 people and 5 of them went to have a beer with the tour guide afterwards. I recommand this tour highly before too many people hear about it and it becomes too popular!!! | ||||||

| This tour was the highlight of our trip to new york city. My daughter is 13yo and a rock, punk , glam fanatic and this tour was unbelievable for her ( and Me too ). I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in that period of music and for all teen agers. we were really fortunate as we were the only people on the tour ( we went on a weekday rather than a weekend_I recommend this) so essentially had a private tour. wear comfortable shoes | ||||||

A Walk On the Wild Side
|
|||||
| Wed, Apr 11, 07 1:00 PM | MariaLHarris | Female | 40-49 | International Tourist(s) | Family Without Children | |
| My concern before embarking on this walking tour was that we would not locate the meeting point as a previous reviewer had complained that it was difficult to find. I worried unnecessarily however - we met up with our guide Bobby Pinn with no problems at all. After being warmly welcomed, we then embarked on a fascinating two hour or so walk around the (once) wild side of New York, the area that provided the spawning ground for the 70s NY punk scene. We started where Joey Ramone once lived, walked the streets that Debbie Harry and the boys in Blondie tramped, posed in front of legendary New York Dolls' hangout, walked through Iggy Pop's old neighbourhood and ended our tour outside the sad sight / site of the now defunct CBGBs. Throughout our tour Bobby gave us some great anecdotes and tales of Rock n' Roll excess and strangeness, as well as testing us on our rock trivia. To the passer-by it must look odd to see a group of tourists huddling round an un-prepossessing grocery store on the Lower East Side gazing at its frontage in awe, (particularly being as we were in the shadow of some of the world's greatest architectural landmarks), however the tour really gives the participant a flavour of the environment and conditions that informed the work of so many of the greats from the NY music scene of the 60s and 70s. Plus it's a great way to burn off some of those calories amassed from a heavy egg and pancake breakfast earlier! | ||||||

| I'd recommend this to ANYBODY who has the faintest bit of interest in Rock and Roll music. Bobby Pinn is THE authority on the New York scene and on my tour there were lots of "Oohs" & "Aahs"...there seemed to be another Rock and Roll revelation on every street!! Ernie Fritz rocks!!! | ||||||

| A group of four girlfriends including one NYC resident took this tour and we all really enjoyed it. Bobby certainly knows his stuff and is happy to share his love of the NY rock/punk scene. Such a pity that CBGBs is closed. Do the walk then go back and listen to your fave Ramones tracks with new enthusiasm! | ||||||

| 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 !!! | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||

| Going on this tour made me wish I'd lived in NYC in the 1970's! I have already recommended the tour to loads of friends who are also travelling to New York. I saw so many places that were connected to musicians I have always loved and the guide was able to offer so much insight into what happened at each of these places, and in most cases, show photos of how the places looked back in the day. The tour guide was also able to answer questions about sites that were not specifically on the tour and provide directions for people to find places themselves once the tour had finished. All in all, I can't praise this tour highly enough, I really enjoyed it. | ||||||

| Bobby Pin is the best! He is passionable, funny, really knows about what he does!We went to his punk rock tour with our 13 year old son and it was great. When we arrived home in Brazil after 12 wonderful days in New York our boy keeps telling everyone that this tour was the best of all he did there! You sure are going to have many brazilian Punk Rock lovers from now on... Thanks to Bob Pin, keep on the good work! | ||||||

| Just do this tour - Bobby is great - very knowledgeable and very funny. We passed Roberta Bayley on the street (took Ramones 1st album cover photo) which was an added bonus. Just to see and hear all about the music history in this small area is fantastic. Thanks again. | ||||||

| 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 | ||||||
