Naming Conventions?

Should "Cafe" be capitalized when used as an abbreviation, as it's part of the name of the chain? SpikeJones 12:31, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

West Tennessee

I'm from West Tennessee and have, for all my life, heard that the first Hard Rock Cafe was opened in Jackson in the mall... Interesting trivia -- I've even seen a t-shirt from the Hard Rock Cafe, Jackson. Several individuals remember the store as being basically a "burger joint" in the mall. I've thought this would be an interesting addition to this article, but have been able to find only one source -- the Jackson Sun (a Gannett paper, I think) -- at http://www.jacksonsun.com/discoverjackson/famous_faces.shtml. This link provides little information and certainly nothing verifiable. Anyone else ever heard anything about HRC and Jackson, TN? --Chiacomo 06:28, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

There might have been a burger place named "Hard Rock Cafe" in the mall, but I'll guess that it was a knockoff. It's well documented that the first one was in London and the 2nd one was in NYC.SpikeJones 12:31, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The page that I referenced above is no long available, but the only thing (other than individuals to whom I have spoken who remember the Hard Rock in Jackson) is that Isaac Tigrett is from Jackson (in fact, his family is still prominent in the city). I was told that the original store was placed in Jackson to establish United States trademarks/copyrights or something -- before the international opening in London. I'm continuing to research this -- I'm intrigued. --Chiacomo (talk) 05:43, 17 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fire

Is Hard Rock Café really a current event? To my knowledge, the company isn't particularly in the media at the moment, and I don't suppose that all currently existing organisations qualify for the Current Event tag? --Thf1977 22:31, 11 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The person who added that tag said the one in London was on fire. But he didn't expand on it. Mackerm 07:04, 12 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It *was* on fire. Not anymore. [1] SpikeJones 12:31, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
