Michael Monroe unveiled a big surprise for his upcoming 60th anniversary show in Helsinki: the original line-up of the legendary Hanoi Rocks will rise on stage again!

Gig Reports

2023 was the year when you could say that Demolition 23. are back, and they are here to show what a true punk rock ‘n’ roll show is. This unit only released one album in 1994 with a lot of critical acclaim, achieving legendary status that still stays almost 30 years later, and they destroyed Tavastia in Helsinki back in October!

On Friday 23th of September, we witnessed a historical night of rock ‘n’ roll when the original lineup of the legendary band Hanoi Rocks performed for the first time in 40 years in front of a sold out arena with over 8000 people in Jäähalli, Helsinki at Michael Monroe’s 60th birthday extravaganza.
