Are You Experienced?
So, what do you do to follow up your Space Needle visit??? Right next door is the Experience Music Project!!!
It's got a cool design to the building, reminds me more than a little of the Disney Concert Hall back home.
There's a crazy sculpture primarily made of guitars, but also with keyboards, banjos, and all manner of other instruments.
I think it has six of them that have motor driven spring pluckers on 'em, making their own music. It was pretty cool. Probably the most photogenic thing there!!!
I don't think it was a permanent thing, but they had an AC-Dc exhibit. There was a photo op in front of their logo, with guitar and Angus Young jacket props.
They've got Hendrix and Nirvana exhibits. I stayed at the former considerably longer than the latter. There was much very cool audio history, as well as displays of several of the remains of his sacrificed guitars.
There's a hands-on music lab thingy that'll teach you to play, and sound mixing and vocal effects labs.
I really like the way the last picture came out!!! It was tricky, as they prohibit flash photography!!!
In the same building there was also a Science Fiction museum. Next post!!!
