  • Worst "museum" I've ever visited.
    I went to the EMP with my wife and two kids. After forking over $120 for the music and sci-fi "museums", we entered the smallish building, wondering what the hype was all about. What we found were broken exhibits (the bass strings were all gone, the keyboard was busted, a drum had a hole in the pad, etc.), long waits and completely ...

  • I wouldn't go again.
    By chowda, 06/16/05
    Simply a waste of money. There were some neat exhibits, but the overall experience doesn't justify the bloated admission price. My advice is to skip the EMP.

  • one trick pony
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/01/05
    Boring, good for a one-time visit only. The technology was too much and the exhibits were big on stuff and little on musical appreciation.

  • What is Paul Allen thinking?
    By kabbalah2000, 09/26/05
    "Uncle" Paul doesn't really want you to go there; he just needed more closet space. You can sponsor a needy family for a month on the admission price. Shame on you Uncle Paul.

  • Not worth the time or money....
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/20/06
    EMP was the biggest waste of time and money of our whole Seattle trip. The building exterior is very interesting, but that is about the best aspect of the whole visit. We will never go back......

  • OK. This place is not for everyone
    By dancing_computer_robot, 09/16/05
    Come if you're a music wanna be.

    Was the experience fun? yes, if you're a masochist.
    Would you recommend it to others? yes, my fellow masochists.
    Was it worth the time/money? yes, it's cheaper than most masochist clubs.

  • Broken and over crowded
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/05/05
    I was frustrated because some of the "interactive" items weren't working and there was no control over how long people could take over an item and when crowded you couldn't get near any of the working items.

  • Not worth it
    By David D, 06/23/06
    There is simply not enough here to check out. Not for anyone younger than 16 either to hold their interest. I think this might be wothwhile at 25% of the current ticket price.

  • Lower the price
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/31/07
    The EMP was quite interesting and the interactive portion of the museum was fun but I don't think it was worth the price of admission. I wouldn't recommend it to people on a budget because of the price. But if it was lowered I may go again.
