Played, Worn, & Torn - Day 1

Julien's Auctions is proud to present the return of the bi-annual 'Played, Worn, & Torn' music memorabilia event back into Nashville, Tennessee, on November 20, & 21, 2025. Set against the historic backdrop of the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum at The Municipal Auditorium, this two-day spectacular will feature over 800 remarkable pieces tracing the flashpoint moments, studio magic, and stage-shaking glory of rock and roll's most celebrated legends. Highlighting this year's collection are curated selections from the private collections of Kirk Hammett (Metallica), Adam Clayton (U2), and Tommy Lee (Mötley Crüe), with a portion of proceeds from these collections benefiting MusiCares, All Within My Hands, St. Jude's Children's Hospitals, and Teen Cancer America. The event also features instruments supporting Gibson Gives and other worthwhile causes, plus iconic rarities from superstars like Keith Richards, The Beatles, Elvis Presley, John Coltrane, Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie, and now, Ace Frehley's unforgettable stage-played "Shooter" Les Paul. This must-see exhibition and live/online auction offers musicians, collectors, and fans a unique opportunity to own a tangible piece of the soul of music history. The exhibition tour includes the Musicians Hall of Fame in Nashville beginning October 29 and the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square, New York, on November 12.
