Better than the Rock Hall
By Christine, 9/26/05
The EMP is very interactive, and has great local artist representation. We loved the audio tour and exhibits where you could play instruments, mix, and get 'behind the scenes' info. We hope to get back some day!

Worth the Money &Time
By Daniel, 1/14/06
Fantastic! I can't think of a better museum showcase for rock music. My family went to Seattle and ran the Marathon. After going to Pike Place shopping we visisted the EMP. Should have allowed much more time to take this in. The hands on music booths/sound rooms were so coool, especially like "come as you are". I will visit many more times. Hats off to whoever put this together. Daniel

The Best $20 You'll Spend!
By Gideon, 10/1/05
The EMP has something for everyone - go check it out! Their feature exhibit changes from time to time, so check their website to see whats going on before you visit. The mere size of the EMP's music memerobilia collection is worth the trip alone!

The Mullet Band
By MisMacrl, 9/18/05
I took my daughter there with 2 friends for her 13th birthday present. They had a blast jamming at the On Stage. I like the hands-on experience with all the different musical things. Very much a museum with interaction completely in mind! We will definitely be making a trip back!

i loved it
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 7/24/05
I've visited the EMP twice and loved it both times. If you're a musician it's a great place to jam, goof off with the various equipment and even make a CD if you want. The guitar section was informative and has guitars dating back to when they were first invented. I enjoyed all the old rocknrollers clothing (Elvis was a little fellow, so was janis joplin). The only negative thing that I encountered was the bar areas where the drinks and snacks were a little too expensive, but I would go back in a minute and buy me another beatles cap :)
