Had a really great time at the Irish Rock n Roll Museum. Our guide, Sterling was super knowledgable and friendly. They also have a great selection of memorabilia, especially if you're a Thin Lizzy or Rory Gallagher fan. It was super cool to see the recording studio across from the main 'experience' too. Would highly recommend for any fans of Irish rock!
A Great Visit to the Rock Museum in Ireland
