Among the items on display will be:
–Argent’s electric pianet, an electro-mechanical piano

The band members will also serve as guest participants in a British rock and roll history trivia game taking place from 6 – 6:15 pm that’s open to the public with paid admission and free to Rock Hall members.
The Zombies’ other hits included “She’s Not There” and “Time of the Season.” They recently concluded a North American tour commemorating the 50th anniversary of Odessey and the Oracle. For more information on the band, check their official website.
