When Cleveland disc jockey Alan Freed coined the phrase "rock and roll", he was laying the foundation for a cultural phenomenon and, incidentally, this museum. In 1986, three years after the creation of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, Cleveland became the home of the dramatic glass and steel pyramid called the Rock Hall, designed by the architect I. M. Pei. With an impressive multimedia permanent collection and continually changing temporary exhibitions, visitors can enjoy listening to songs, watching films, and looking at rock memorabilia ranging from a Cub Scout shirt worn by Jim Morrison to Madonna's bustier.

Overpriced
By KE, 01/12/10
Way overpriced for what they have there. We haven't been there in about 10 years and were hoping they may have something different there now. WRONG!!! The only thing they have from the last 7 or 8 years inductees is a video that you have to wait over 30 minutes to even get into and then you can finally sit down and watch it. Personally we were disappointed. Don't get me wrong, there were some really cool things, but they need to do some updating and pare down on the older exhibits if they want to keep drawing people back. Maybe cut back to just a few costumes and make room on the lower level for something new.

Grown up fun!

I felt as if Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is more for the older age group. Maybe 25 and older.My fiance had a wonderful time and learned an enormous amount about a lot of famous people. The amount of things to look at takes a great amount of time. Definatly worth the time and the money.

We Can't Wait To Go Back
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/31/07
I liked all the different artists that are/were inducted. It wasn't about one specific artist or group. There is so much to see about the history of the artist or the groups that anyone from any generation (of music) can enjoy or find an artist they enjoy listening to.

Waste of money
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/20/07
Perhaps I wanted more. I just felt like I got ripped off. It should be free to visit this place. I didn't learn anything visiting this Museum.

Ok for one visit...
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/15/07
Kind of pricey. Was ok to see the instruments (Jimi's white strat). The clothes get kind of ratty after a few years. But now that they are admitting rap, I won't go back. Rap isn't music.

better than expected
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/01/07
I was not enthusiastic about going but was very pleasantly surprised at how interesting the museum was to my rock and roller husband, my 10 and 14 year old kids (with no recollection of 90% of the artists) and myself. They do an excellent job of combining memorabilia, audio and video. The space is impressive. We spent 4 1/2 hours and saw most things but a real afficionado might spend even longer. It is not cheap @$20, but on the recommendation of an online review I saw, my husband became a member, which covered admission for 2 adults, a t-shirt, Rolling Stone mag for a year, and some 2 for 1 admissions so it seemed like a pretty good deal.

great
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/06/06
Great place to visit. We were there 6 hours and could of stayed more.Very educational. It was organized very well. There needs to be benches as it requires a lot of standing.
