Went here as part of the city pass. This museum is absolutely amazing! This is coming from somebody that doesn't tend to rate things highly. The exhibits are highly appealing and did a great job combining visual and auditory senses. I was enjoying exhibits on musicians/bands that I don't really like...that's how well it was put together.

The music rooms were...well I couldn't believe them. When I went they were very empty. You could go in some rooms and just jam for 10 minutes on drums, guitars, keyboards, etc. Other rooms specialized in one instrument, or you could use a microphone and practice vocals. What a toy! The best part was the rooms are soundproof, so no need to feel embarrassed!

The scifi was eh. I am fairly big into Star Trek, and they had some interesting stuff there, but outside of one or two neat exhibits, it seemed a bit of an after thought. But it hardly matters, because the rest of the museum is just that awesome.

This seems like a great museum for people in their 20s and 30s, probably good for teens too, and plenty of the older crowd as well..... I know my 63 year old pop would have loved it too. You could easily spend a full day at this museum.
