This week we have the privilege of being visited by Giles Moon, the head of music curation at Julien's Auctions, who gives us the inside scoop of the upcoming Music Icons auction, which takes place May 29-30 at the Hard Rock Cafe Times Square in New York City. The sale features nearly 700 items from icons such as Johnny Cash (the guitar he played at his Grand Ole Opry debut in 1956), Ace Frehley (many items including his main Les Paul), Elvis Presley (a stage-used microphone), many Beatles items (including a table and chair set owned by Ringo Starr), a large collection of original paintings by Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood, and many more rare and iconic items. 

To learn more about Rock Icons, or to register to bid or watch the livestream of the event, visit the Julien's website.
