Lindsey Vuolo, Miss November 2001 stops by with 4 models to show off some new shirts from Playboy's Rock the Rabbit line.

Rock the Rabbit 2008 includes an impressive line-up of legendary artists, including Duran Duran and Iggy Pop, as well as other cutting-edge musicians across a variety of genres, both established and buzz-worthy up-and-comers.
