On Monday, October 3rd, 2011, RockStar Music School had the distinct honour of hosting another Live Eye Breakfast TV segment with Jennifer Valentyne and her morning crew!

It was the second visit from the BT gang, but the first one at our new Bolton facility at 12 Parr Blvd. The crew arrived early in the morning at about 5am and Jennifer followed at about 6am. Some of the RockStar All-Star students were on hand to perform some classic rock hits and owners John and Tina Menoudakis were there to give Torontonians a good idea of what RockStar is all about.

We were also pleased to have many of our RockStar students come by and vist us so early in the morning, including Katarina (pictured to the right) who performed in front of the cameras with John. Of course Jennifer could not resist taking the stage once again and singing for the cameras as well. RockStar also raffled off one full year's worth of music lessons ($1000 value) to one lucky winner - Geri Holychuk of Caledon.

We would like to thank everyone who came out to visit us on such short notice and especially Botlon McDonald's and Party Magic for supplying us with some morning treats and decorations. Once again it looks like RockStar is really making it's mark in music education and the industry as a whole, and the response is growing every day. Come in and check out our brand new one-of-a-kind facility

RockStar is very proud to announce that our new facility at 12 Parr Blvd., in Bolton, Ontario is complete! The last few months have been a lot of work for owners John and Tina Menoudakis but the venue is more than ready for the 2011/12 season and fall registrations are into full swing. We have added a ton of new products and services at RockStar including a jam space, recording studio, new instrument product lines, music accessories, books, and most importantly . . . a brand new live performance area for our students! We will also be welcoming many other exciting musical acts and guest musicians that will be gracing our stage in the coming months!

Please check out our FACILITIES page to see new photos of our venue or come on in and check us out at our new location on Parr Blvd. Anyone interested in more information, please call 905-951-3000 or email us.

That's right, student concerts 23, 24, 25 & 26 took place at the new RockStar Music Centre and although it seemed to be an impossible task at first, we managed to make our big move in April and have all four of our year-end concerts take place within the next two months.

We are proud to say that the concerts were such a blast and with more renovations taking place during the summer, we plan to make RockStar even better than it ever was!

There were many first time performers in these concerts, along with a lot of veterans and teachers, so we would like to take this time to thank everyone that participated and a special thanks to all the family and friends that attended.

RockStar's music program will include a lot more shows in the near future so we look forward to the 2011/12 season with tons of excitement and anticipation. We plan to incorporate many new exciting ideas to our venue, so stay tuned for more news about RockStar in the coming months!

Congratulations Amberley and thanks for making us proud and wearing our RockStar colours! ROCK ON!!!

Owners John and Tina Menoudakis, along with the staff at RockStar, would like to take this opportunity to thank every single student and parent who took part in our 4th season at RockStar. We have steadily been growing every year, and we owe it all to the people who attend our music school, especially the ones who have been coming here since the beginning, back in July of 2006.

This most recent concert included a record 20 songs! We still managed to keep the show around the 2 hour mark and it was worth every minute.

We will be entering our 5th season at RockStar in 2010/11 and we hope to grow even more next year. Please call 905-951-3000 or come and visit us soon, and get registered for a year that promises to be like no other at RockStar Music School & Concert Hall.

See you in September!!!

The show included many classic and modern rock songs, with the Kimber family participating in no less than 5 numbers during the evening. Aurora, Arik, Ariel, Aaron and Andrew Kimber all have been attending RockStar Music School since 2006. A special thank you to Aaron for jumping in on the male vocal part of Evanescence's 'Bring Me To Life'.

RockStar's very own piano instructor, Ginevra Mormile, also played a number and sang for the very first time on our stage - way to go Ginny! Some other memorable songs from the evening included AC/DC's 'TNT', Celine Dion's 'My Heart Will Go On' and Journey's 'Any Way You Want It' among others.

John and Tina Menoudakis, owners of RockStar Music School & Concert Hall, set a goal for themselves a long time ago. After building this very unique music school in 2006, they became obsessed with bringing in one of their main musical inspirations - Steve Vai.

They went as far as promising themselves that they would never have a Steve Vai song performed on their concert hall stage, until Steve had performed at RockStar himself.

That all changed on Tuesday, November 24th, 2009.

We were honoured to have Steve Vai present his Alien Guitar Secrets Master Class at RockStar Music School & Concert Hall and we can just about sum up the whole experience in one word . . . WOW!!!

The attendees came in from all over North America to get a chance to hear Steve share his most personal ideas and thoughts about music and life in general. This was not just a musical theory class or some guy trying to show us how to shred on the electric guitar. It was more about the attitude and approach we need to have in order to accomplish our goals, both musically and in life.

He had mentioned the most important thing to have is a deep desire and love for what it is you want to do, but at the same time, make sure you are realistic about it. Ever since he picked up the guitar at 13 years of age, he set out to become one of the most unique guitar players around and he worked very hard at it - after all, this is the man who is famous for the '10 Hour Guitar Workout'.

We would like to thank all the people who attended this historic event - those who travelled great distances, some of our very own RockStar students, our staff, family and friends who helped out.

RockStar is currently working on bringing some other big names in the music industry to the concert hall in the near future and we will let you know as soon as we have more details.

For now, we would like to thank Steve from the very bottom of our musical hearts for being part of the inspiration behind this school and making our dreams come true.

Thirteen of our very talented RockStar students played a 3 hour show at the Budweiser Midway Stage. It was non-stop rockin' entertainment from 3-6pm including over 30 cover songs and 3 original compositions.

We would like to take this time to thank all the students and parents who made it through 2-3 hours of traffic to make it to the biggest gig this school has ever played. Including the seated area, along with standing room and all the passers-by, the crowd was easily into the thousands.

It is very satisfying to know that the time and work we are putting into band practices is paying off, and many others are starting to notice. Stay tuned for much more to come from these amazing kids.

RockStar Music School & Concert Hall has officially had it's first television debut!!!

We were delighted to have CITY TV's Breakfast Television crew visit us on Tuesday, March 31, 2009 for the first ever MORNING student rock concert. Everyone who attended had a blast and especially Jennifer who simply could not resist the opportunity to rock out with some of the RockStar student members of The Twelve. Both the camera crew and Jennifer were shocked at just how good these kids are getting and we look forward to showing off our talents much more in the near future.

We would like to thank everyone who attended this amazing event and a very special thank you to Jennifer Valentyne and the Breakfast Television crew!

Benny and Patty are busy raising three opinionated teenagers. Between music, sports, and friends life in this home has become very hectic. As the kids grow, Patty and Benny have noticed their space in the home shrink. Can Hina restore order in the home while Dylan creates a space for these teens to call their own?

One concert in May and two more in June brought us to the conclusion of our 3rd season at RockStar.

We have now put on nineteen student concerts in our concert hall and performed almost 300 songs! As usual the bar keeps getting higher and higher at this school, and we are simply amazed at how good these kids can be when they put some effort into their music.

We look forward to 20th Anniversary concert this coming December and we plan to make it something really special - stay tuned for more updates.

There will be two more songwriting camps coming this summer along with other camps catering to younger children, so please feel free to inquire about our summer camp schedule for 2009.

Register for camps or lessons any time during
the year at RockStar. Call us at 905-951-3000 or email us for more info.

Many of our newest students took part in the 16th RockStar student concert on Saturday, March 7th, 2009.

We were treated to yet another amazing concert with many participants taking their very first shot at a live stage performance in front of family and friends. The concert hall has been upgraded with new lighting effects and stage truss and it was great to see our new equipment in action.

Thank you to everyone who attended and a special thanks to those who have been showing their appreciation for what we do here at RockStar with thank you cards and great compliments after their concert experiences. It's such a great feeling to know that people truly believe in what you are doing. THANKS!!!

The latest installment of our RockStar student concerts this past December has once again set a new standard for our students and this school. We were entertained for a solid two hours by some of the most talented students this school has to offer.

We would like to thank all those who attended including Regional Councillor Annette Groves, the staff of Snap Caledon newspaper and Rick Sargent from The Bee 105.5 FM.

The group consists of Dana Cervoni, Sam Savoia, Sam McCorriston, Andrea Menoudakis, Sara Menoudakis, Josh Marrocco, Frankie Corrado, Joseph Frustaglio, Anthony Molinelli, Biagio Mazza, Jordan Brazeau & David Menoudakis.

We are super excited about this special RockStar project which includes our students playing cover songs from Led Zeppelin, Ozzy Osbourne, The Beatles, Disturbed, Jimi Hendrix and a bunch of new material including RockStar originals. Their current set list can go over a couple of hours with over 25 songs.

If you are looking for some very impressive and unique entertainment from a very talented group of students, ranging in ages from 6 to 16, please call us at 905-951-3000 to arrange an appointment. As mentioned before, these kids practice every Tuesday from 6-9pm, so feel free to drop by and have a listen - we are booking dates now!

We finally made it through our second season at RockStar and what a way to finish! Our students and staff once again showed everyone why this school is so different from everyone else.

Our concert hall was jammed for 2 weekends, displaying a wide variety of amazing music and entertainment from over 200 students. More than two months of band practices helped get everyone prepared for 4 shows that once again brought our already impressive RockStar standards to a new level.

RockStar Music School would like to thank everyone involved including staff, teachers, parents, guests and especially our students!

Call 905-951-3000 and get signed up today.

Our latest two concerts, which took place on Friday, February 29th and Saturday, March 1st, 2008, marked our 9th and 10th student concerts at the RockStar Concert Hall and the students did an outstanding job.

We can't believe we have gone through ten of these concerts in just a year and a half, but the proof is in the pudding as they say. Our students put on 2 spectacular concerts and it truly shows how hard work and lots of practice pays off in the end.

Once again we would like to thank everyone who came and a special thank you to the students, teachers and staff for putting on our best shows yet.

Our talented students once again put on great performances on Friday, December 14th and Saturday, December 15th as we closed the year of 2007. We have now put on 8 amazing concerts with 6 more scheduled in the coming months.

All the students benefited from our 4 weeks of free band practices and the crowd was treated to songs from Led Zeppelin to Linkin Park to Iron Maiden to Joe Satriani, including originals.

A very big thank you to Dino, Kelly, Robert and Paul for the amazing experience and a special thank you to all of the people who came to watch the show.

Our concert hall is a truly an amazing place to enjoy live music for the whole family so give us a call any time at 905-951-3000 to find out about our upcoming shows!

The students performed a ten song set including songs from Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Jimi Hendrix, and two original songs written during our March Break Rock Camp. We will be performing at many more events in the future so to all the students . . . keep it up, because you never know where it might get you - ROCK ON!

We all had a blast and look forward to doing many more RockStar workshops in the coming months. Special thanks to our instructors Rocco and Catherine for helping out.

We would like to thank all the students and teachers who participated and we look forward to many, many more. Parents, relatives and friends were treated to 2 spectacular shows which took place in our very own concert hall.

Our set list included all sorts of songs from the classic 60's and 70's all the way to today's popular music. We hope that all students were inspired by the event and look forward to seeing them grow with us as we take on new challenges in the coming months.
