displays are kaleidoscopic and wonderful. music/vids/
art...just a tons of visual awesomeness.
I liked his SNL pink poodle costume...the tie on his blue suit..
His drawings of his stage design concepts...
the tiny coke spoon was funny...also had
some of his original artwork..and many many framed photos/posters/
lyrics/drawings/writings/etc.
There was also a large layout of one of his record designs
that was collagey and neat.
