Chelsea               Hotel
               Located               at               222               West               23rd               Street,               between               7th               and               8th               avenues               in               the               Chelsea               neighborhood               of               Manhattan,               NYC,               the               Chelsea               Hotel               has               a               reputation               of               hosting               and               providing               refuge               for               many               renowned               artists,               poets,               writers               and               musicians.

Built               in               1883,               it               became               known               as               a               music               haven               in               the               60s               and               70s:               Bob               Dylan               wrote               songs               here;               Sid               Vicious               allegedly               stabbed               and               killed               his               girlfriend               Nancy               here               in               1978;               Leonard               Cohen,               Janis               Joplin,               Jimi               Hendrix,               the               Grateful               Dead,               Patti               Smith,               and               more,               all               have               passed               through,               created               and/or               resided               here.
               Said               Patti               Smith               of               this               hotel:               "The               Chelsea               was               like               a               doll's               house               in               the               Twilight               Zone,               with               a               hundred               rooms,               each               a               small               universe...

so               many               transient               souls               had               espoused,               made               a               mark,               and               succumbed               here.

I               sniffed               out               their               spirits               as               I               silently               scurried               from               floor               to               floor,               longing               for               discourse               with               a               gone               procession               of               smoking               caterpillars."

Richardson               Memorial
               Located               in               Clear               Lake,               Iowa               is               the               memorial               for               the               late               Buddy               Holly,               Ritchie               Valens               and               J.P.

"Big               Bopper"               Richardson               Jr.

Known               as               "the               day               the               music               died"               (in               Don               McLean's               "American               Pie"),               the               lives               of               these               three               musicians               were               taken               way               too               early               in               a               1959               plane               crash.

Sadly               and               ironically,               Clear               Lake               wasn't               an               original               stop               scheduled               on               the               tour,               while               for               all               except               one               previous               stop,               the               musicians               were               using               a               charter               bus.
               Specifically               the               memorial               is               located               a               quarter               mile               west               of               315th               Street               and               Gull               Avenue,               about               five               miles               north               of               Clear               Lake.

A               fan               of               the               musicians               created               a               stainless               steel               guitar               monument               as               well               as               three               records               with               the               name               of               each               performer,               in               1988.

As               a               signal               that               fans               are               almost               near               the               memorial,               there               are               a               gigantic               pair               of               horn-rimmed               glasses               by               the               roadside               (a               trademark               of               Buddy               Holly.)

New               Orleans,               LA
               Yes,               I               know               this               is               a               city.

But               having               been               to               New               Orleans               myself,               and               experiencing               everything               it               has               to               offer,               I               must               say               my               favorite               aspect               of               this               city               is               the               music               scene.

If               you               don't               dig               jazz               or               the               blues,               don't               sweat               it               because               the               city               offers               all               varieties               of               music.

However,               jazz               and               the               blues               are               the               origins               of               the               rock               &               roll               we've               come               to               love,               and               this               city               contains               the               perfect,               eclectic               mix               of               all               these               genres.
               There               are               festivals               held               here               year-round               (notably               Marti               Gras               and               Jazzfest,)               an               even               if               you               happen               to               be               visiting               during               a               time               of               no               festivals,               there               are               plenty               of               renowned               jazz,               rock               and               reggae               clubs               in               the               area.

Unlike               other               cities               where               at               best               you'd               find               a               man               playing               guitar               for               cash,               here               you'll               find               the               streets               packed               with               aspiring,               retired               and               freelance               musicians               who               simply               want               to               make               music               for               the               hell               of               it,               and               I               guarantee               they'll               have               way               more               fancy               instruments               than               guitars               to               play.

There               is               a               reason               why               New               Orleans               is               known               as               "The               Birthplace               of               Jazz."               Come               experience               this               city               and               you               won't               regret               it.
