Mayor Boris Opens O2's British Music Experience
London mayor Boris Johnson has officially opened the all-new British Music Experience (BME) at London's O2.
The high-tech, interactive exhibition was four years in the making and inhabits the entire 22,000 sq ft top floor of The O2 bubble.
Featruring a combination of cutting edge audio-visual technology and the most coveted music memorabilia of all time, it's a must-visit for pretty much every music fan.
But for the guitar fan there's something really special... Gibson Guitars' own interactive studio, where visitors can play a range of Gibson and Epiphone guitars, Slingerland drums and Wurlitzer digital pianos and get step-by-step video tuition from the likes of KT Tunstall, The Magic Numbers and Amy Macdonald!
