Cleveland Rocks!


Cleveland Rocks!  Literally…
What do the following musicians all have in common?
-Bone Thugs n Harmony
-Reliant K
-The Black Keys
-Marilyn Manson
-Dean Martin
-Doris Day
-Kid Cudi
-The Pretenders
Obviously not their style of music, but these musicians have all called Ohio home.  There are so many artists that stem from Cleveland and the rest of Ohio.  In fact the Rock & Roll Music Hall of Fame can be found right in downtown Cleveland.  A couple weeks ago a group of classmates and I decided to check it out.  We all had a great time! 


Another shining moment?  Being as close as I’ll ever be to a real-life Grammy Award (it was Michael Jackson’s).  Unless, of course, I become the next only Podiatrist/Hip Hop star.  We only spent a couple of hours at the museum, but you could surely make a day of it.  There are so many movies and videos throughout the museum, plus more memorabilia than imaginable. I encourage you to visit the Hall of Fame next time you have the opportunity!  Unfortunately I don’t have many pictures to share, it’s pretty much a camera forbidden zone.  But hopefully that mystery alone has you dying enough to go check it out for yourself!  Tickets are about $22 but if you show a student ID it’s only $17.  That $5 saved can go a long way in the life of student!  

Afterwards we walked around downtown in search of food.  What would appear to be a simple task for over a dozen hungry med students turned out to be surprisingly hard.  After what seemed like hours of mindless wandering (it was probably only 20 minutes), we ended up at The Hard Rock CafĂ©.  It was great fun getting to know each other and grab a good bite before the inevitable doom of studying unfolded!
