Opening Day September 1, 1995 A look at Cleveland's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

Check out our FAQ about the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame

Many people were unable to come to Cleveland to join in the celebration as the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame officially opened. I took my camera down to 9th street and took a few pictures to share with you. The picture at the top of this page is a composite I worked up from some of those pictures.
The media was out in full force. Lining both sides of 9th street were radio booths where different radio stations from across the country were broadcasting live throughout the day. A special platform was built just for TV cameras.
Many on-the-spot interviews were taking place wherever you looked.
Inside the hall of fame wasn't the only place to be. Roaming around after the parade I took these shots "on-the-street". See if you know what the different floats here represent.
Music for the passerby wasn't only provided by the hall's own speaker system.
No one attempted to take this for a ride in the harbor.
A small boy touches his "piece of the rock".
You may have seen this float on Nightline.

On my way downtown, I took this shot of the Cleveland skyline from Edgewater Park on Lake Erie.
