Some people got a chance to see some rock legend memorabilia Monday in Myrtle Beach.

The Hard Rock 20th Anniversary Memorabilia Tour made its way to Broadway at the Beach.

Hard Rockpicked its top 40 iconic pieces from its collection to take on tour.

Tt includes clothes, lyrics and instruments, among other things from Jimi Hendrix, Michael Jackson, Elvis, and Snoop Dogg.

The man who's running the tour says it was hard to choose what to bring.

"It was tough," said Jeff Nolan a music and memorabilia historian. "We wanted to get a balance of stuff that really spoke to people's emotional connection with music and I think we achieved it."

Nolan adds a letter from Janis Joplin often brings tears to people's eyes and Justin Beiber's skateboard gets little girls in a tizzy.

The memorabilia tour is now on to its next stop.
