That's awesome Ken. Where are you playing, and is it digital or winded?

Oh, it's winded. It's the real deal, with one 32 foot stop. I didn't feel comfortable playing with the church's resonant frequency last night, but I'm pretty sure it's D. It's at my church. My wife bought me a set of 3 lessons at last year's auction, and I've just got around to redeeming them. Only 1 lesson so far.

On a side note (and I regret handing you guys this one), I'm taking pipe organ lessons at the moment. Why on earth would you regret letting that out. I have not learned to play any instruments and you are only expanding your horizons, I salute you.

Plenty of innuendo to work with there, that's all.

True, very true, I know I had my thoughts but for some reason decided against posting them, possibly because it was just TOO obvious; especially for this crowd.

Ken, that really sounds great. I've never had an opportunity to play a real pipe organ(our church uses no instruments, so my musical?contributions are limited to "acapulco", as some comedian once said, singing in our small choir). Maybe I'll have to find the opportunity to at least try it, since I do enjoy listening to organ compositions.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

It's a lot of fun, but is quite difficult. I'm still trying to figure out which shoes to wear.

I don't think I'm ready to drop bank on real organ playing shoes... just going through my existing shoes and seeing what works.
