Speaking on the occasion, Vikram Varma, AVP- Marketing for JSM Corporation said, “Hard Rock Cafe for the last 43 years has served the legendary dining experience with a side order of Rock “n” Roll history. Rocktober Fest will be a power packed month packaged with good music, food and beverage. Our guest will get a taste of two cultures - American Rock-n-Roll and German Oktoberfest. We have gained popularity over the years with music as one of our USPs across all the age groups and are delighted to have an electrifying performance by Puddle of Mudd at Hard Rock Cafe across all cities in India. From pre-gigs for Hornbill Festival to MTV Xtreme promotional gigs and Puddle of Mudd India tour, we want to keep the Rock fans engaged throughout October. There is so much to look forward to.”

And there are more surprises! If you are an alternative rock music fan, there’s a rare chance you’ve missed out on Puddle of Mudd. But if you have, then you have reasons to rejoice as the famous Kansas City- bred American alt-rock band will be touring across Hard Rock Cafe India from September 29 – October 04, 2015 in association with Vh1. The band will be performing for the Indian fans for the first time ever. Oh! What an evening it will be.
