My Day At The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame


Happy Monday! Last week, I took a day trip to Cleveland and got to check out the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum. I took photographs highlighting my favorite parts of what I saw.




















Having just seen Joan in concert a week ago, I loved being able to see her exhibit.




I went with two friends and they could tell I was in my element here. I may have went a little overboard on spewing facts about music from the 1950s-1970s. :P




The museum definitely has an amazing collection. Besides a nice display for Michael, they also had multiple outfits worn by David Bowie and a section for Prince.






John Mellencamp literally has a whole room dedicated to him. 



Fun fact! When I was ten, I become infatuated with Otis Redding. 







My favorite part about The Beatles display, was the John Lennon section. 


















Their gift shop is a museum in its own right!






My new shirt :)

We spent two and a half hours at the museum, but I could easily see spending three to four hours. There is so much to see and read. I really enjoyed the interactive component that the museum offers. I have been to the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles and thought that was really cool; but that museum is a stepping stone for how amazing the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is!

Thank you Samantha and Josh for accompanying me and making the day a memorable one!

  14. I went to the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame when I spent a month in Cleveland housesitting for friends who were in Russia adopting their first child. I LOVE Cleveland and loved the museum. Cleveland is one of the best cities in the US. SO much to their whether you want to go indoors, outdoors or are a foodie. My favorite singer Neil Diamond was inducted into the Hall of Fame the same year I went so I was pretty excited!

  27. This is so cool! Music is a big part of my life and it would be amazing to visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. With everything in the mix, it's weird to see Britney Spears and N'Sync in there, haha.

  31. This place is absolutely gorgeous, beautiful and stunning. Even though a few event venues Chicago are equally appealing and fascinating in their decor, food and aesthetics, I'm tempted to still give this place a slight edge.
