On November 7, Hard Rock Cafe San Francisco hosted their 25th Anniversary (!) event featuring Atlantic Records artist and 2-time Juno award winner Serena Ryder. Serena is a big fan of our brand, and has performed many times for Hard Rock Cafe this year, including the Hard Rock Cafe Indianapolis anniversary event, Pinktober at Hard Rock Cafe Louisville, and World Hunger Year events at Hard Rock Cafe Detroit and Hard Rock Cafe Lake Tahoe. Yeah, not only is she an amazing performer, but she's an incredible person, as well. Just look at that smile. :-)
The event also featured a performance by incredible artist Eion Harrington, who brought in tons of locals and fundraised tirelessly to help the cause and event. To that end, the entire evening helped raise funds for Music in Schools Today, a great Bay Area non-profit organization that advocates for, supports and develops integrated, accessible, sustainable and measurable music-in-education programs that improve student achievement.
We've rarely seen a more amazing silent auction area. Incredible silent auction items included an original Janis Joplin print, signed guitars from U2, Aerosmith, Green Day, Sammy Hagar, high end jewelry and artwork, vacations, and cruises. Notable guests in attendance included San Francisco 49er cheerleaders, Duncan/Channon, Mix Magazine and Spin Magazine executives, Atlantic Records reps, KFOG radio execs, the lead singer of Finding Stella, and San Francisco Magazine. We just wanted to thank one and all for making this one hell of a special 25th b-day. You all rock!
