my Hard Rock count: 237 visits
plus 6 non-corporate cafes
There are other ways to count
visits, including shops & venues without different merchandise.
Counting all these locations, I'm at 276 visits.
Almost all of them are recognised by Hard Rock Rewards, the official program.
But it's way of counting visits
is incoherent and incorrect:
For unknown reasons,
Hard Rock Rewards gives you additional credit for visits to rock shops and some
other randomly selected outlets.
Doesn't make sense to me, unless there's a different name on merchandise
products, which is only the case at Hong Kong The Peak.
Some current locations don't or didn't participate in Hard Rock Rewards.
Nevertheless older visits from the former Pinclub members do count. Kind of
strange, isn't it?
Some hotels & casinos in western USA/Canada aren't allowed to participate, due
to license and corporate policy issues.
Also, Rewards only counts the Orlando Live location, but no other/former Live
venues. Where's the logic to this?
Anyway, though I've been to all of them, I don't count the Hard Rock Live venues, as they're
not permanently open,
neither do I count Hard Rock Vaults or HR HQ.

I've hit my first Hard Rock Cafe back in 1995 in Amsterdam, accidentally by the way. Soon after this, during my vacation in the US, I've visited my first corporate cafe, in Dallas, and since then I was hooked and started to collect HRC t-shirts (with the intention to show folks back home where I've been on vacation). But only two years later in fall 1997, I decided to collect shot glasses as well. It took about another year for me to discover that there are a lot of trading opportunities through the internet. Since then I continuously expanded my collections. Nowadays, free space is my main problem....
My favourite Hard Rock Cafes are Dubai and Key West.
