Type Wall

Went to a show last night at the Tabernacle and the headlining band ("Crowded House", don't laugh) had a backdrop of a collage of newspaper clippings that was about 30' wide x 25' tall. It looked really awesome. I love to see type and type compositions all mixed up and enlarged to massive scale. The music was good, but a bit dated. I really went to see the opening act, Pete Yorn. His band was pretty good. Anyway, I was inspired and am looking for any reason to put enlarged type on a huge space.

Here's a pic I found from one of their other recent shows. It's not great, but it shows a bit of the backdrop.
