Today is the day

Welcome everybody!

This is the day when the Napi Rock and Roll International Edition starts. Why today? Because this day is the 2nd birhtday of the original Napi Rock and Roll Facebook page, and first birthday of the blog version.

What is Napi Rock and Roll? This is a page where you can find a new video every (working) day. The name "Napi" means daily. That's what you can expect from the international version too: a rock and roll (rockabilly, country, swing, blues) video every working day.
The main audience of the original pages are the Hungarians, because most of the bands who appear on the page are Hungarians, and they play several hungarian songs.
But most of their songs are played in english, and I've got videos from several non-hungarian bands too. I think those might be interesting for the international audiance as well.

So let's celebrate the 2nd birthday of the Napi Rock and Roll and let's wait together for the very first video wich is coming at 18:00 CET!
 

Tomorrow...

Tomorrow starts the international Edition of the blog Napi Rock and Roll.
On the first week you will hear songs from the following bands:

• Johnny Horsepower will play a Johnny Cash song for us
• The Naked Truckers showes us how they play surf
• The Jumpin Bop plays a Buddy Holley cover
• The Mystery Gang will play about their Woodoo Doll.

I hope it sounds interesiong.
Don't forget: just one more day. :)
