In keeping with the "Shit Post Thursday" theme, something has occurred to me.
I was in a mall the other day, and I noticed that the cheesy MIDI sounding organ stores are gone!
When I was a kid I always remember walking through the mall and watching the over polished older gentleman, who in hindsight must have been ready to off himself, playing the organ over the samba, tango, and various other canned MIDI tracks.
Even though highly annoying, I kind of miss that. I never remember any customers in the stores, just the one sales guy rocking out, and a whole store filled with organs you Grandmother had in the room you weren't allowed in as a kid.

I also made that observation recently.
the organ master was always wearing a polyester blend suit and had a badly fitted toupee

Wow, I never realized those were gone. Such a mall stereotype, now gone the way of the McDLT and the hairline of the old men playing the organs. Kind of sad, when you think about it. That's why I try not to think about things.
Where have all the organs gone, long time passing?
Where have all the organs gone, long time ago?

Gone to the basement of the owners, every one!
When will they ever learn, when will they ever learn?

I read a book on midi recording one noght while i was on speed. The only thing I retained from it was the meaning of MIDI, which is musical instrument digital interface. It's fun to act like I know what's going on sometimes. hehehe, No, i am joking. I retained a little more than that. If I had an organ, i would probably have sex more...........
thanks folks, I'll be here all week,
