Good question - the Hall of Fame and Cleveland Indians are the biggest attractions I believe. I haven't been to Cleveland in a good number of years, but I hear that are some good clubs with live music. Oh, and a Hard Rock Cafe. I like to go to those whenever I can and try to pick up a limited edition area guitar pin.

My employer has an office in Cleveland, can check with the staff there when it gets closer to your visit if you remind me.

How long will you be in Cleveland?

ok... so post rehearsal feedback...

The guy's got major talent and nicest guy you'll ever meet - he had everything dialed in and we just ran over everything for about an hour- hour and a half and he was confident that getting together tomorrow one more time we'll be set. We had a lot of fun and he gave us the liberty as the band to throw out suggestions to tweak things here and there and he really liked our suggestions and made it even fun for him.

I'll be using my Silhouette Special for 90% of the songs but broke out the 20th for a few songs as well and he was really diggin the tone. I'm also using my Dr. Z Maz 18 and a few pedals... I was expecting a special delivery pedal rushed out to me for this weekend but mail didn't deliver it and it'll show up monday along with my new pedalboard flight case... LOL!!!! day late... but oh well!

off to practice some more to really fine tune a few areas i wasn't comfortable with...
