And most interesting poster was the one of The Beatles last live concert:
The day I was there, they had one of Lars Ulrich's from Metallica drum kits there. Anyone who signed up could play it for a minute:
The Art of Noise was a really interesting exhibit and it was cool to see how we listen to our music has changed over the years.
