Cleveland Ohio - Rock and Roll Hall of Fame - Friday April 24

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland Ohio was a really interesting. We arrived at 10 and were surprised when 4 rolled around and we were still there.

There were several cars hanging from the ceiling.















 Lots of information on Elvis, of course.
Lots of posters, ticket stubs and costumes from several artists.

A whole section on Paul Simon; pictures, artifacts, audio and video clips. Some from 
Saturday Night Live that were hilarious.

This video had comments and footage of the Beatles while they were recording each of their albums.

"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" This one is for you, Robin!

The Supremes were the most successful female group of the Sixties.
These Bob Mackie gowns were first seen on an NBC-TV special and
then on the back cover of the Supremes and Four Tops album, The Return
of the Magnificent Seven

This wasn't a first draft, but its the earliest known manuscript. 
Lots of really interesting stuff on a broad range of entertainers. They also featured information on the technical side of radio, disc jockeys and music history. 

So ends our trip. We arrived home in Kitchener around 11pm on Friday. We visited 15 states, traveled 7500 km, saw many place to which we need to return and bought a lot of fabric!
Thanks for following along with us - I hope each of you has the chance to check out these places some day.
