The reveal party was just insanely good, something like 300+ people partying in the alley and Mac's parking lot, all loving the art, the pizza, the music, definitely a residential invasion of the best kind, it was like a block party from the 60's, nice people, great times and lots of people lovin the wall, check it out next time your by Dease and May St. Definitely more of this will happen!
