    Ugliest building in the US that's not owned by Trump. But not a bad museum inside.

    Not much music. Was so much cooler when it first opened. All they have is Nirvana, Hendrix. What about the rest? History? Blues? Jazz? Overpriced for not mucg to see. Sound lab was fun.

    What a terrible museum. With barely half a dozen exhibits it's a travesty to call it that. Don't waste the $20. Just take a pic outside, it's the most interesting part.
