Last Wednesday 8th November we were invited to attend the inaugural HRH AWARDS CEREMONY held at CAMP HRH in North Wales.
The hard-rock visionary CEO JONNI DAVIS [pictured above] explained to crowd of music professionals, artists and fans that the ceremony was a way of saying a big thank you to all those who helped over ten years to create and nurture the Hard Rock Hell machine… building it into a major global enterprise.
The event was a gloriously glittering round-table celebration and a carousal of all that’s brash and vibrant in the world of hard rock ‘n’ heavy roll…
