Do Any Of You Plan At Some Point To Visit Some Rock And Roll History.........

1  onestepbackwards 1111 posts 2.9 years While my Daughter was in the UK doing a internship at Q magazine she had the opportunity to visit and walk across Abbey Road. She has a picture of herself taken outside the Strawberry Fields orphanage. She also went to Penny Lane and got a pic of herself in front of the sign and then traveled up to Liverpool and visited where the famed Cavern Club was. She also went around a few rock and roll haunts in Manchester. Having said that I have only been to the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame in Cleveland. I was just wondering if you folks have been to any famous rock and roll sites?

It must be nice though for some people who can. At least I can hear the shared experiences of those who have seen such places. The closest I ever came to actual rock and roll history was when I lived in Southern California in the mountains and Frankie Avalon used to frequent the grocery store that I used to work in. He told me a little about his so called glory days as a star and blah blah blah, but did seem like a really nice down to earth guy. Although, it was by no stretch of what it would be like to talk to Paul McCartney. Other than that, the only other thing I have ever done is visit the old Capitol Records building in Hollywood, CA., but that is pretty much it..........

I found my stay there interesting. We were actually staying in Cleveland and going to see Oasis, Jet and Kasabian in Chyahooga Falls (bad spelling). If I'm back which I will be you must be near where the Browns play and Cavilers they are just within walking distance of the RR hall of fame.
