EMP Music Museum is a mixed bag, in my opinion. If you really love rock music, there is lots to see and enjoy. The exhibits on Northwest music in general and Seattle in particular are very good and informative. (How odd that much of the best surf music of the 1960's came out of Tacoma!) There have been interesting and well though out traveling exhibits too, although these appear to be suspended at the moment. The Frank Gehry designed building itself is worth a visit. Love it or hate it, Seattle could use all the interesting architecture we can get. However, $20 admission is way too much for this type of museum. That is twice as much as it costs to see the greatest art and culture in world history in places like the Vatican, Ephesus or most museums in Rome and New York.
