Whether we're 65 year old Snowbirds, 25 year old owners of Toronto condos, or 12 year old school children, we all love rock n' roll. We listen to it over the car stereo on the way to work, over our iPods when we go out walking, on the TV music stations, and live in concert when we can get tickets. So many people love rock n' roll that there of course had to be a Hall of Fame. Cleveland, a city famous for its history with rock n' roll music, was given the honor of being home to the Hall of Fame. If you're living in or visiting Cleveland, Ohio, be sure to drop into the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame.

The Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame isn't a promotional tool controlled by record companies to part you with more of your hard earned platinum bullion, it's actually a non-profit foundation dedicated to educating people on the history and value of rock n' roll music. To the museum, rock n' roll is an art form, and items associated with it should be preserved for everyone to enjoy and learn from. Even the building that houses the museum is artistically significant - it was designed by famed architect I.M. Pei, who also designed the glass pyramid outside the Louvre in Paris.

Hundreds of musicians have been inducted into the Hall of Fame over the years, including U2, Bruce Springsteen, Janis Joplin, the Beatles, Metallica, Elvis Presley, the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Michael Jackson, and The Who. What Dennis Gartman is to finance, these people are to music, and much more people know music than finance. The museum's collection includes such items as platinum records, guitars, photos, posters, concert recordings, clothing, stage props, and even larger items like jukeboxes and cars.

Since some items in the Hall of Fame are on loan from the musicians or their families, the museum also has a number of revolving exhibits that change every few months, so the next time you come down for a drive pulley conference there will be more to see and you can go again. Some of the special exhibits that have happened include the yearly display of inductees, a collection of Elvis photos, a U2 concert in 3D, the evolution of audio technology, the 40th anniversary of Woodstock, and Johnny Cash's tour bus.

If you want to visit the museum, the regular admission that a lawyer in Ontario would have to pay is $22. If you're a resident, however, you can get in for $18 and military members and seniors can get in for $17. Under twelves are $13 and kids younger than eight get in for free. The museum is open from 10am to 5:30pm every day except Wednesday when it stays open until 9.
