Cleveland Calling...
Two exhibits that should be worth checking out are coming to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. Mark your calendars.
Bob Dylan's American Journey
May 20th - September 4th
The exhibit features more than 150 artifacts, including Dylan’s 1949 Martin 00-17 guitar, typed and handwritten lyrics, rare concert posters and handbills, signed albums, and dozens of photographs. At the center of the exhibit are four films exploring different facets of Dylan’s career, with rare performance footage and interviews with Dylan and other artists.
The Clash
Opens October 2006
The Clash survived into the Eighties, amassing a formidable body of work. Led by Joe Strummer and Mick Jones, the Clash offered militant politics tempered by hope. Their strongest albums, London Calling and Sandinista!, balanced the raw power of punk with forays into reggae and rockabilly. Throughout their career, the Clash held fast to their convictions, making music that rocked with a conscience. The Clash are 2003 inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The exhibition will include collections from all five band members of the Clash.

Glad to see the "wisest of the wise" weigh in. You know, you are indirectly responsible for this blog....it really all started at Byrnedale, when you helped me see the light. Didn't like the Dead Kennedys much, but it was entree into a curiosity I still haven't satisfied...thankfully.
