How Do They Get All This Stuff?

The Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio is a bit of a mind-blowing experience if you've never been there before and today, I had my mind blown. Truly.

Some of the coolest guitars, drums, amps & stage clothing belonging to everyone from Elmore James to Stevie Nicks...it was exciting to see it all. But I kept wondering how in the world they'd managed to acquire the personal effects of a guy like Muddy Waters? I mean, they have his frickin Martin acoustic that he played at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1967. How did they get that?Anyhow, it was a great experience and I would encourage any music lover who's traveling through Cleveland to stop in and visit this place. Wow.

Charlie Watts' snare!
