METALLICA's Kirk Hammett and Robert Trujillo are among the special inductee guests who will appear at the launch of "Play It Loud: Instruments Of Rock & Roll" at the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame in Cleveland on Thursday, November 21. Also scheduled to appear are Don Felder, formerly of THE EAGLES, and Nancy Wilson of HEART. All special guests have instruments included in the iconic exhibit. Tickets are $30 for members and $50 for non-members and include full touring privileges of "Play It Loud" and additional Rock Hall exhibits, live music and entertainment, one complimentary drink ticket, and a dessert bar. "Play It Loud: Instruments Of Rock & Roll" celebrates the iconic musical instruments that gave rock and roll its signature sound. Co-organized with The Met, the exhibit offers a rare, in-depth look at the instruments that inspired the musicians and made possible the songs we know and love. "Play It Loud: Instruments Of Rock & Roll" is the largest single exhibit the Rock Hall has ever displayed and takes over four floors. Fans can expect spectacular new acquisitions and adaptations that make the show unique to its venue. Instruments showcased span from 1939 to today and many have never been displayed outside of their original concert performance settings. From Bruce Springsteen's guitar to a flamboyant costume worn by Prince and psychedelic strings used by Jack Bruce of CREAM, fans can examine personal items up close. The exhibit was previously on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
