Rock N Rest Travel

29/06/2014

Hi everyone! So it's been about two years since I have used this page in any way, shape or form so figured I should either bury it like the business or turn it into something else. My new gig is the perfect thing to promote here since it is still all about "rocking and resting" for artists & fans, it's just Chicago specific now. I was hired to to do exactly the same thing I did for RNR except that I will now work for a hospitality company rather than as a travel agent. The intent is to grow a new affordable lodging business by bringing in touring artists and their fans. If you are traveling to Chicago for any shows and need an affordable room option in a GREAT neighborhood please get in touch!!

Quite the duo!

East Bay Ray is walking the halls of the US Congress in Washington DC with David Lowery (Cracker, Camper Van Beethoven) talking to our Representatives and Senators about the exploitation for profit of other peoples files on the internet. And the corporate funded cyber-bulling being generated about that issue.

Tomorrow is National Record Store Day folks! Boycott iTunes for the day and hit your favorite non-chain record store. There are few things more enjoyable than the tactile feel of thumbing through albums. It does the soul good!!!

Our second favorite day of the year, the one where we get to play Santa and reveal the loot under the record-store-shaped tree (insert your own gift-revealing analogy here). We’re thrilled to tell you that the list of titles being released ONLY AT RECORD STORES is only a click away, in TWO versions:...

Long live The Georgia Theatre!!

With a lot of perseverance and perhaps a little divine intervention, an Athens landmark is restored.
