MICHAEL MONROE Invited to the Presidential Independance Day Reception

Former HANOI ROCKS leader MICHAEL MONROE has issued the following update:

"Wow, whaddaya know... I've been invited to the Presidential Independence Day reception at the Presidential Palace on December 6th. In other words, the Castle Ball ("Linnan juhlat"). That's a great honour and very exciting!

Like I've said before, I think our President is the coolest - she likes rock n' roll! Last time I met her was at the JOHN FOGERTY concert at the Pori Jazz Festival in Finland (in the photo)."



Monroe recently released a new video, for the Sensory Overdrive album track, 'Trick Of The Wrist'. Watch the clip below:
