I can't believe it has taken me so long to write about one of Cleveland's best attractions...the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. This unique building is made to look like a record player from above and is one of the things Cleveland is best known for (other than having a really bad football team). The Hall of Fame is located just east of the Brown's Stadium. I went there once and it is definitely a must see for anyone who lives or visit the area. The building has seven floors and each floor has it's own theme and honors different influential musicians. I especially like the area of the museum that displayed popular clothing worn by musicians. Articles like Michael Jackson's original Thriller mask, the Rolling Stones concert costumes and more. Elvis' original convertible (I'm not sure about the importance of that but I'm sure any Elvis fan would appreciate that). There's many short film documentaries following the surge of rock and roll and currently there is a 3D U2 movie playing in the museum. There is also a wall of all the Rolling Stone Magazine covers. This was awesome to see because it was almost like a documentary of pop culture in pictures. Jennifer Anniston, Lennon and Yoko, Jay-Z and Britney Spears were all there. Tickets cost $22 but if you have a greater Cleveland ID, you get the discounted price of $18. AAA members also get a discount.
