Rock and Roll Hall of fame
I did tear myself away to journey down to Cleveland and the rock Hall of Fame. This is housed in an extraordinary building by the architect Pei who I think designed the Guggenheim at Bilbao in Spain. There was a huge amount of 50s and 60s memorabilia, a special Doors exhibition and a celebration of the Beatles Help! movie. For me, i really enjoyed the U2 exhibits - Larry's first U2 t-shirt that he screeen printed in art class at school in 1978 was teeny. The Bowie area included his costume from the Ashes to Ashes video which is an extraordinary costume. And of course there was a Queen section with Freddie's waistcoats, jumpsuits and one of Brian May's outfits. A very enjoyable three and a half hours. Now on my way down to Kentucky and Tennessee.
