A little over a year ago, I was asked to design and build a desk chair for a new Hard Rock Hotel in Mexico.
I had the opportunity to hop a plane to Mexico to install some upgraded cushions on 'The Beach Star Roller', and to attend the October 12th unveiling of the Bret Michaels Rock Star Suite at the Hard Rock Hotel, Riviera Maya. It was pretty cool.
Read the Event press release.
Bret likes his new Beach Star Roller!

The traditional smashing of the guitar!

This is one of 2 bedrooms in the suite. Since it is where the Beach Star Roller (my chair) resides, I shall call this the Master Bedroom.
Music stage in the suite. Nice guitars!

On the deck. Very vivid, changing colors.
Within 25 minutes after Bret smashed this guitar on the deck, it was put on permanent display downstairs in the suite. Boom!
After the unveiling of the suite, Bret preformed a set for an intimate group of fans at Club Heaven. 'Every Rose Has It's Thorn' is still stuck in my head...
