So you've decided to go on holiday? That's a great idea! I hate my god damn day job too, they're all jerks. I'm also willing to bet you're sick of going to the same bars, seeing the same bands, waking up in the same gutters. How about the allure of going to new bars, seeing new bands and waking up in new gutters? Well we have a treat for you.
The How to Rock Out: Osaka Tour is a one week jaunt to Osaka, Japan where you are taken to the best Live Venues, eat-y places and bars. Week long hangover permitting or not we also drag everyone along to some old buildings so you can take photos for your mum, so that she can think you had a lovely time when the rest of us know the truth.
The HTRO boys acting as guides, translators and general purveyors of rock will ensure that your trip is one you will surely remember for a long time to come.
*September 11 Twin Towers Sale!*
If you and a friend book before September 11 for a Tour in November or December this year, your prices will fall! You will receive 2000HKD off your total price!
Normally you'd be able to go on one of these face melting tours for around 14,000HKD now you can rock the fuck out on one for 12,000HKD! This is both a bargain and everything you wanted, so do it now, get on over to www.howtorockout.com , check out the Tour section... if you're reading this newsletter then you're in the right place! |
Interviews you may have missed!
